Funny / crazy casino news [U.S. ONLY!]

Hey everyone! 🎰

I thought it’d be a blast to start a thread where we can share the wildest, most hilarious news stories from casinos across the U.S. Whether it's bizarre happenings at brick-and-mortar joints or wacky incidents in the online world, let’s hear what you’ve come across!

To kick things off, here’s a doozy from Evansville, Indiana. Over at Bally’s, formerly known as Tropicana, three guys got caught up in a scheme where they were swapping jackpot winnings. This trio managed to hit not one, but five jackpots in a single spree back in April. The catch? The guy who actually won, Shinvar Abdullatif, wasn’t supposed to be gambling since he’d banned himself from the casino previously. But, thinking his self-ban was outdated, he roped in his buddies, Delavan Mohammed and Ali Mohamad, to collect over $8,000 in winnings on his behalf. Too bad the casino’s sharp-eyed surveillance caught them in the act, leading to some serious charges for all involved! (source: Tri State)

there was a dude in Vegas who dressed up as a slot machine repairman. He’d wander around pretending to fix machines, but really, he was just pocketing the payouts. Lasted a good month before security caught him!

North Carolina. A guy tried to use Monopoly money at the poker table. His argument? “It’s all paper, isn’t it?” Security was not amused, but the dealer had a good laugh.

There was a glitch in an online casino that credited a player with 10,000 free spins. The guy thought he hit the jackpot until the site realized the mistake and voided all his winnings. He threatened to sue but settled for some actual free spins. 😅

That’s why I stick to the physical machines. At least when they break, you can kick ‘em! (Not that I’m advocating violence, of course. 😉)
