Nevada Resident Wings Big!
This was the second highest jackpot ever one in the state of Nevada, and Casino spokespersons joined IGT representatives, manufacturers of the electronic slot machines, in saying how pleased they were that the prize went to a local resident. Many casino locals avoid casinos to avoid the temptation to gamble away their paychecks, while others enjoy occasional forays to the slots and tables for a bit of excitement and a chance to get out of the house. For these casino neighbors, living in close proximity to a casino is a huge bonus.
The Romanick pot is the second largest payoff earned worldwide from slot machine play. The highest pot ever was won in 2003 at the Excalibur Casino in Las Vegas.
