Have you ever won a jackpot of any kind?
Just curious to see how many people have actually hit any kind of jackpot in the past.I hit my first jackpot back in 2000 at a casino in Hollywood Fl. It was only worth about a $1000 but it was exciting to see an entire line of machines going off. Then later that same year I put about $80 in a machine in a Tampa Fl casino and hit the jackpot for about $4500. I think this is when I really got hooked on casinoes, lol. I would have to say 2001 was my best year. I was at the same casino in Tampa Fl

Sometimes, great news flashes will supercede any lottery media attenti
