On the way back to Connecticut from Oregon we stopped in Kansas City, MO. Approximately five minutes away was a casino that my step-dad wanted to go to. I didn’t really feel like going. I would have much rather ordered pizza and stayed in the room until we left the next morning. But, we ended up going…
Part of the dinner conversation went like this:
Chris: “If you win you’re giving me half of whatever it is.”
Me: “No way, but if I win $1000 I’ll give you $500.”
Chris: “Deal.”
So we finish dinner and Chris gives me $20. We both sit down at some slots and he looses the money and I print a $6 ticket and we walk to another area. I sit down at some random machine with my ticket and Chris goes to Roulette. I’m down to around $2 and just went for it all. My heart starts beating faster… and I won $1000. I print my ticket walk over to Chris and he can’t believe it.
The day before my car broke down in Denver which cost around $700 and Chris paid for it, so the least I could do was to stick with my deal and give him $500.
