A True Story. Sorry you are getting the long version.

My sister and brother-in-law went on holiday to Europe for six weeks and I volunteered to look after their five cats while they were away. They lived in the country, about 30 minutes from our largest city, Auckland.

I needed to have a quick look at a computer reference book, so went online and saw that the Auckland Public Library had a copy. I decided to go there on a Sunday, because there would be less traffic. The library opened at midday on Sundays and there was a parking building close by.

Half way between the motorway exit and parking building I found a free park, about a fifteen minute walk to the library. Half way between my free car park and the library was the Sky City Casino. It was about thirty minutes until the library opened, so I decided to go in for a quick look.

After “investing” $50 on the slots, decided to get the hell out of there. On the way out, I checked my fob pocket and found a $2 coin. I put that in one of the closest slots to the exit and selected 1x10. Nothing happened. Pushed the play button again and nothing happened. I was on a $1 machine, lol. Selected 1x1 and then heard an automated voice “The jackpot’s been struck, the jackpot’s been struck”. I thought some lucky “so in so” has won a jackpot and pressed the 1x1 play, to finish off my big $2 investment.  Nothing happened and I then realised it was me, who had won the jackpot.

I cannot remember the exact amount, but it was worth over $5,000. When I left the casino, I was so excited that I forgot to go to the library.
