Best Move He Ever Made

So a man and a woman are fighting over a pair of jeans, and the man finally gives in and goes to buy the jeans only to win a ton of money. Does it sound like the beginning of a joke? Well, it actually happened to a couple this past weekend.

Sammy Zabib was at the Borgata Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City and forgot to buy a pair of designer jeans for his girlfriend from one of the boutiques. All week she harassed him and they fought endlessly over it, until Zabib gave in and went back to get her the jeans.

Arriving too early for the boutique to be open, Zabib sat down at one of the slots and started playing to kill some time. After playing for about an hour, he hit the jackpot. Imagine the surprise on his face when he won almost $800,000.

Playing the Brazil Slingo slots game at $4 a spin, Zabib had no idea of how great his day was about to become. He says he sat there with the picture of the jeans in his pocket, just so he wouldn’t get the wrong pair. After winning the jackpot, he got his payout and then went and bought the jeans.

He says he was playing and suddenly the slots game stopped. He called over security to ask what had happened and they told him he had won. Needless to say, his girlfriend wasn’t mad about the jeans anymore.
