Getminted.com presents: Wheel Of Fortune^TM Online Games

By Graham Clifford

The Wheel of Fortune continues to change the lives of players around the world, some in more dramatic ways than others!

In June a 65-year-old retiree from the American state of Georgia hit a $12.4 million statewide MegaJackpot while playing a Wheel of Fortune $1 slot machine.

The winner who wishes to remain anonymous for obvious reasons set a world record for this particular slot system.

“This is the first time I have ever played a Wheel of Fortune slot machine,” said the stunned winner after IGT technicians and Mississippi State Gaming officials verified the jackpot. “

From the Casino’s perspective, the world record MegaJackpot gives a huge boost to the Gulf Coast and its gaming destinations, which are still recovering from the devastation of Hurricane Katrina last year.

The Georgia man was on holidays with family members making their usual visit to the Isle of Capri to visit the Gulf Coast to stay and play at their favorite casino.

After experiencing bad luck at the blackjack tables, the winner decided to take a break and try his luck on something else. The winner witnessed another punter hit a $400 bonus round jackpot on another Wheel of Fortune machine and decided to spend some time on one as well.

After placing $100 into the Wheel of Fortune machine and playing about $40, the Isle of Capri patron became Mississippi’s latest MegaJackpot winner.
“I thought I had won $12,000,” the winner said, “not $12 million! Wow, it’s really hard to believe!”
