New resident hits for nearly $1M at North Las Vegas casino

Move to Las Vegas. Put in a few quarters in a slot machine. Win big.

You might have seen that in a few hundred sitcoms through the years. If you were at Aliante Hotel on Saturday night, you saw it there, too.

Visiting the movie theaters at the North Las Vegas casino, a new Southern Nevada resident hit a nearly $1 million jackpot on a 25-cent Wheel of Fortune machine.

Clint played $1.25 and won $935,176 around 8:15 p.m., according to an Aliante post on Twitter.
