Default Tough night for DrugS?




(ODDITY-Banned-Gambler-Jackpot)

Some guys have all the luck -- but a Pennsylvania man isn't one

of them.

The man has to give up a two-grand jackpot won playing a slot

machine.

State police say the man had previously banned himself from

casinos under a program for problem gamblers.

He'll also be charged with trespassing.

State troopers haven't named the 55-year-old Waterford Township

man.

He won the jackpot Friday at Erie's Presque Isle Downs and

Casino.

Under the program, the forfeited money goes to a compulsive

gambler treatment fund. (The Associated Press) (from Broadcast News

Ltd.)

Compulsive gambler treatment fund? What do they spend it on? Coffee, and field trips to the Olive Garden?
