If that was my ex, she'd still be there pulling that handle

LAS VEGAS (KLAS) – Do travelers really win big money at airport slot machines in Las Vegas? 
A Texas woman did on Thursday, according to a tweet from McCarran International Airport. 
Identified as Megan H., the Flower Mound, Texas resident hit a $302,334.86 jackpot on a Wheel of Fortune slot machine.

  1. Probably wishes she no longer had that ring.

  2. And what creative excuse of a machine malfunction will they come up with to deny her winnings?

  3. Funny, my biggest win was at the Vegas airport during a layover. Did have enough for their expensive lunch, but there was a slot machine in front of it and I had a couple of quarters. I thought, 'hey, if I win enough for lunch, I'll get something for my last flight. Spun up some winning set and the machine started spitting out...quarters. Lights, bells, whistles...and some plane of what looked like Japanese tourists de-board with wide eyes with all of this going on. They had to drive out a little cart to refill the machine so it could finish paying off. It all took so long, I never got my lunch, and I ended up having to board with a few hundred dollars, all in quarters, in my pack.

  5. Your call. I was either a very stupid or lucky young man. I was probably seven or so walked in to a Carnival and first booth a Carnie took every penny I had. He hooked me big time. I walked around while my friends paid for rides and had fun. I never gambled again in my life.

  6. If Ex’s had any skill at “pulling the handle”
    They wouldn’t be ex’s now would they!

  7. I don't understand why in the world people post and let themselves be photographed in these situations. You're not going to take my picture to use for any purpose but to id me for the taxman scam, you're not getting a release of any kind to use or any of my info or likeness for your advertisements period. Unless you gave me money to gamble with I don't owe you anything for my winnings. Period
