Wheel
of Fortune Slots on Hyper-Spin LAS
VEGAS - Hitting three times in about 12 hours, Wheel of Fortune Slots
went into hyper-spin in southern Nevada on Sunday. The "megaburst"
of MegaJackpots made one player a millionaire and awarded two others hundreds
of thousands of dollars and, in an extraordinary twist, two of the jackpots
were hit at the same casino. The winning
streak began shortly after midnight at the Casablanca
Hotel Casino in Mesquite, Nev. when Eugene Pawluk of Edmonton, Alberta,
won $867,743 on Wheel of Fortune(R) quarters. Pawluk, a ringer for Santa
Claus, says he would like to live the role, hoping to do more for society
with his new found fortune. Just a short time later -- while Pawluk's jackpot was still being verified -- a school teacher visiting from Blue Island, Ill., hit Wheel of Fortune $5 at the Riviera Hotel & Casino on the Las Vegas Strip for $1,597,978. Then, Sunday afternoon, about 12 hours after the first jackpot at the Casablanca, Wheel of Fortune(R) quarters hit there again! This time, Vera Huffman, a 92-year old Mesquite resident won $258,363. Huffman said that she was just following her usual Sunday routine of having breakfast at the resort and then playing slot machines. What's she going to do with the money? "Just enjoy it," she said with a big smile. |
