Just got back from Vegas and our stay at Red Rock.Had a couple of nice hits at Red Rock and Fiesta Henderson. On the last night I ran a triple play up to $575 after hitting AAAA2. We had an early flight so my girl friend went upstairs to pack. I decided to give the big progressive ONE more shot. I hit the 4AK earlier but the royal was still up for grabs. So I put the ticket in and hit the big one. I was so freaked out and excited that I just got up and headed to the room with my money and my W2. When I got up to the room my friend asked how much I had cashed out of the triple play. Oh my gosh I didn't know if any other grandma ever jogged through a casino so fast. Just as I got to the machine a guy was getting ready to grab the money I had left on the machine. I actually yelled at him, "Get away from my machine, right now." LOL HE sure moved and there was the Royal still up on the machine with my money intact. Thank gosh!!! I'll never do that again.

Great hits and great story! Casinos sure can bring out the crazy in all of us! Tks for the good reminder! I could start a topic : What have YOU left at a machine...But how embarrassing if I prove the only one to have left a card, book, jacket, unopened water bottle, $, yada....Bravo for you to find that yelling voice! The same woman tried to beg from me again at Greektown recently. I took another member's advice but my intended yell for "SECURITY!" came out a timid whisper that I doubt even she heard! She did however get the message and disappeared super fassst around the corner!

Yep Larry, even those of us with smaller bankrolls get lucky and have fun. That Royal put me up for the year so I'm a happy gal.

That's a good way of doing it ! ! ! Take the money or check and then catch an airplane and get out of town. Congratulations ! !

That was exactly what I did...If TSA had only known what I had in my purse. Very fun...It's safely stashed in our home safe waiting for my next excursion.
Thanks for all the congrats. Most my friends don't gamble at all so I don't share with them and my husband really doesn't appreciate how hard I work for these hits. Back ache, hip pain, hunger, smoke inhalation, and blurry vision. And for this he gets to play golf and eat free food while staying in a plush room....He's a lucky man.
