Lady Luck was on the side of five Sun Beach Bingo players who hit the jackpot yesterday in the last instalment of the sizzlingly popular game.

Fay Jasman of Lac La Biche, Nicole Clausen of Gibbons and Cathy McMillan of Ponoka, along with Gladys Romanko and Suzanne Hrysio of Edmonton, split the $10,000 pot for a cool $2,000 each.

Hrysio said she was at her job at Moxie's around 9:30 yesterday morning when her husband called to tell her of her good fortune. "

Romanko said she didn't believe the news of her win, literally, after her husband suggested in an earlier game that she might have won.

Sun Beach Bingo cards were put in each Sunday's Sun for the past six weeks. Each day, nine numbers were published on the pages of the Sun for weekly chances to win.

Don't give up if you didn't win daily or weekly, because you can still qualify to win the trip to Mexico by entering your expired cards for the draw at the Sun's office.
