Perhaps. I did not read it that way at all.

Those are all piddly jackpots 
....not long ago at the Wynn, somebody reportedly got a dealt royal on $5 (50-play) for a cool million bucks.
Better than that (but non-vp), somebody hit the $0.25 Wheel of Fortune progressive at South Point last week for an even cooler $5.5 million. Not a bad return for a $0.75 bet!

I think that may have been the highest I've ever seen the quarter WoF
jackpot. I'm sure I gave it a couple ticks worth of progression trying in
ill-advised vain.
Hmmph. Stupid Sajak.

That's what I thought, but it's been over $5M a few times before:

On 12/28/06 it was hit at Caesars for almost the same amount; 10/19/04 at Fitzgeralds for $5.9M, and the highest ever on 9/4/02 at Flamingo Laughlin for $8.4M.

The thing that blew me away about that jackpot picture was not the size
of the jackpot impressive though that was. It was the fact that it was
on a $100 FPDW machine. --- In vpFREE@yahoogroups.com, "gilbert_616" <gilbert_616@...> wrote:
