The weekend was pretty much uneventful...although...on Thursday my brother took a break from his job and went to the local casino. He travels to all the stores of a popular grocery chain as a merchandiser in NorCal. Well on his lunch break he's craving a burrito from Gordito Burrito...gross...anyways they have one at the local casino in their food court. So he goes in, get's his food eats it...and puts 5 bucks in a nickel machine, loses and walks out...as he steps out of the casino...he decides he wants a piece of pizza and goes back (ok!) so on his way out, he puts a 20 in a dollar machine and plays and wins $2940.00!! Woo hoo good for him! He then goes back to work for the night. So Friday, he's near another casino and he's done for the day...it's around midnight, so he stops in and decides to play again. Ok, my brother is not a gambler...he never gambles. I've never even seen him gamble. So he's playing dollar machines and he's like hitting 60 to a 100 bucks on each machine (he keeps swtiching), well at one machine he HITS $10,000.00!!! He calls me the next morning and I'm like ur lying, I still wasn't sure about the $2900.oo payout...he tends to tell "stories"...so he's like meet me at moms and I'll show. Because I was like, you need to show me a deposit slip or something 'cause I am not hearing you. So I went down to moms and he showed up...and...well...for the first time in my life....I HELD $10,000.00 IN CASH IN MY HANDS! It was weird. To some people that may not be a lot but to our family from the rez, that is a lot of money! So it was cool, I'm happy for him and hope he uses it well. I told him he should take a vacation...and how funny would it be if what happened to the guy in the video below...happened to him!! LOL priceless. ;-) peace
Congrats to Brother! And they say pizza isn't good for you!
