An Eden man's lucky day came just a day before his birthday. Robert P. hit the wide-area progressive jackpot of $844,000 on a penny video slot machine at the Seneca Buffalo Creek Casino in downtown Buffalo. He placed a $3 maximum bet and landed five WILD symbols across the screen for the top prize. At first, Robert says he thought he won a thousand bucks...but then saw $844,000 and through the machine had malfunctioned. While it's a life-changing amount of money, Robert says he will be reporting to work today...He works for his son's lumber company.
