Slot Player Hits for More Than $1.3 Million in Atlantic City, NJ

Someone walked into an Atlantic City, New Jersey casino Saturday night and walked out $1.3 million richer!

The winning slot machine paid off for one player at Golden Nugget, the casino hotel confirmed on social media, and boy was it SWEET!

The $1.3 million dollar ticket printed out may as well have been golden, because it literally came out of a Willy Wonka-themed slot.

It must have been an out-of-body, OMG moment for the winning slot player, who has yet to be identified. I wonder they have a sweet tooth and that's what drew them to the Willy Wonka slot.

Given the big payout, I'd have to dedicate a least a few bucks to building a candy stash!
