A man goes into the doctors feeling rather unwell. The doctor checks him over and says, 'I have some bad news for you. You have Yellow 24. It's a really nasty virus that turns your blood yellow and you only have 24 hours to live, that is why it is called Yellow 24. Unfortunately there is no known cure so just go home and enjoy your final precious moments on earth.'
So the man trudges slowly home and breaks the news to his wife. Distraught she asks him to go to the bingo hall with him as he has never been there with her before. He agrees and later on they arrive at the bingo hall and with his first card the man gets four corners and wins £35. Then with the same card he gets a line and wins £320. Next he gets a full house and wins £1000. The National Game came up, and lo and behold he won that too, a massive £380,000.

The bingo caller gets him up on stage and says 'Son, I've been here 20 years and I've never seen anyone win 4 corners, the full house and the national game on the same card. You must be the luckiest man on earth!'
'Lucky!' he screamed. 'Lucky! I will have you know that I have got Yellow 24!'
'Blow me!' says the bingo caller. 'You have won first prize in the raffle as well!'
