Sarah and I have been planning some pretty outrageous road trips, that we will probably never go on. However today we went on our first one! We decided to go to Jackson, it's the only casino that we know of close by that lets people under 21 gamble. Somehow our parents got in on our road trip too, which didn't turn out that bad considering we were stuck in the car together for 5 hours today!We left home at around 1:30 and headed straight for Sonic! Incase you aren't aware, Sarah and I are willing to drive all the way to Tracy for Sonic, so we were thrilled when we realized it's on the way to Jackson!
Me trying to not look miserable after a couple hours in the car!
We finally arrived at the casino at 4:00pm, it was a very long 2 1/2 hours of country roads to get there, but it would all be worth it soon!
It was my first time ever using a slot machine so I had no idea what I was doing, luckily the old men who seem to spend a lot of time there tried to help me. I finally gave up on the complicated games and went to a 25 cent slot that I just had to match up 3 things. I put $1 in, lost it all. Put $5, lost it all again. At this point Sarah and my mom walk away and tell me to go with them but I decided to slip in $10, just to try my luck again. Next thing I know there are noises coming out of the machine and a little old lady kept telling me that I won! I had somehow got 7, 7, and 5 times bonus. The men next to me were asking me for tips and the old lady won't stop telling me that I really won this time. The machine finally stopped and I had won $155!!! I was so excited I had to find my family and tell them how I had totally won! And yes I stopped and didn't waste it all playing more slots!
$16 in the machine....$155 out! I would say it was a good day!
