A video went viral on TikTok this week under the profile “Mr. Talcott.” The man in the clip — Michael Rivera — tells viewers he won a room upgrade playing “blackout bingo” aboard the Azamara Quest vessel.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rivera said in the 1:17-long video that he and his husband, Garett Talcott, were given a complimentary upgrade for winning bingo. Blackout bingo requires players to complete an entire bingo card. In this instance, Rivera was the first player to black out all 25 spaces on his bingo card.<\/span><\/p>\n

We just won bingo and got upgraded to the biggest room on the entire ship,” Rivera said in the social media post.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The suite comes with a dining area, storage cabinets, a full bathroom with a jacuzzi tub and walk-in shower, a king bed, desk, two televisions, closet space, butler service, and a 233-square-foot private veranda.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rivera is an elementary school teacher who is spending part of his summer holiday at sea<\/a> with his husband. The couple will now spend it most luxuriously.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rivera and Talcott, per their social media channels, including Instagram, appear to be regular cruisers<\/a>. The couple also took an Azamara cruise over the Christmas holiday break last year.<\/span><\/p>\n
