A gambler placed a small bet on a slot machine in Connecticut, won a life-changing prize, and may be throwing a jackpot party to celebrate.
A woman identified only as Francine sat at an Egyptian Jewels slot machine at the Mohegan Sun in Uncasville and bet $1.25. After hitting spin, the symbols flashed across the machine, and a jackpot message announced a win of $186,718.39.
The casino posted a picture of Francine on its X account.
The post's description read: "Join us in congratulating Francine for hitting this $186,718.39 jackpot with just a $1.25 bet on Egyptian Jewels! Feeling lucky? What would you do if you hit a jackpot at Mohegan Sun?"
I have a few ideas. But we'll save those for another time.
Lots of Social Media Reaction To The Big Progressive Jackpot Win
The casino also posted about the monumental win on Facebook. The image is getting a lot of reactions. One person commented on Facebook, "Smashed it!"
Another suggested saving some of the winnings for future visits to Mohegan and investing the rest, while someone else simply said, "Congratulations, Francine, on your big win. That's so Awesome."
Someone else wrote, "SO AWESOME FOR HER," and another person who commented was also a player who frequents the Mohegan Sun. They said they would be overjoyed since they've played there weekly for 30 years without hitting a jackpot, even though they bet more than $1.25. Someone else called it "the dream" and congratulated the winner.
What's crazy is that this isn't the biggest win at a Mohegan Sun casino this week.
A blackjack player left the Casino of the Earth with a staggering $1,338,736.40 jackpot.
