Casino – A Few Words On How Money Changes People
June 6th, 2009 | 
Author: A Las Vegas cab driver related the following story while taking me from the downtown Four Queens up to Caesars Palace on the Strip. A couple of high school sweethearts in Encino, California, got engaged and planned to marry right after graduation. Something happened between them and they broke up, each eventually marrying someone else.
Twenty years passed. The fellow was a widower now and he was a city bus driver in Las Vegas. On a regular run, he chanced to overhear a conversation between two women sitting directly behind him. They were discussing a mutual friend, and he suddenly realized that they were talking about his old flame. He questioned them and was delighted to learn that she was also now a resident of Las Vegas, and recently widowed.
Of course, he promptly looked her up. Sparks flew and the flame rekindled, as they picked up where they had left off two decades before in high school. Once again, they made plans to get married.
Stopping for a drink at the then newly opened Four Queens, the fellow filled out two sweepstake tickets for a $500,000 prize. The tickets had been dropped off by the waitress along with their drinks, an opening- month promotion for the new casino. As a gesture of his devotion and love, he put his betrothed's name on both tickets.
Of course she won the half-million. And the first thing she did was dump the bus driver.
