(Las Vegas, Nev.) – Randal Allen Welch, of Anacortes, Wash., hit a $378,453
Wheel of Fortune® quarter MegaJackpot® at the Luxor late Friday evening, March
14.
Welch was in Las Vegas with co-workers attending the CONEXPO, an
International convention for the construction industry, when the small amount he
invested made him a rich man. The lucky winner stated that he hit the
MegaJackpot® on the same Wheel of Fortune® machine that hit at a previous
time.
“I chose to play the same machine because I won $1,700 on it a few
years ago,” said the excited winner. “I had no idea I’d win this
much!”
The 39-year-old underground construction worker plans to invest
his winnings.
