How does a $5,000.00 Jackpot appeal to you?
That is correct. The Progressive Jackpot or "Player's Progressive" as it is called in some circles is designed to pay up to $5,000.00. It works like this: Cards are $2.00. Every game that is played the income is divided between the players and the charities. A third, a third and a third. One third goes to an accumulating jackpot, one third to the charities for their profits and one third to you the player. Once the jackpot has grown to $5,000.00 the income is split 50%/50% between players and charities. Once it hits $5,000.00 each day the number increases by one number until it is won. So, always keep track of the Progressive. Sure could have a great party on $5,000.00

This old standard has been around for about 30 years.
It was the very first Provincially Licensed Jackpot. We remember it from the old Broom & Stone bingo hall on Lawrence Avenue in Scarborough. Do you remember that hall? At that time only large halls which could seat over 1,000 players for a session were allowed Provincial bingo licenses for their regular program and in turn they were also the only halls which could get Super Jackpot Licenses. Only within the last 10 or so years have halls which hold Municipal bingo licenses been granted Super Jackpot licenses. So, how is the game structured? The license is granted to the Hall Charity Association for up to six (6) months. During that period the game may cycle as many times as it does without restriction. The price of $2 per strip of three cards is dictated by the license and so are all the other aspects of the game; starting number (50), outside aquare ($25) consolation of 30% up to $300. The Super Jackpot is just one more way for us to offer you “edge of your seat” fun. The image of $2,000 in cold cash being thrust into your sweaty excited shaking hand is an image that can make your heart pound and your body shake as the caller calls closer and closer to the designated number for the event you are attending. .
