Claudette Osborn of Grants Pass was a rich, yet no special person until June the previous year. She’s a retired revenue agent residing in Grants Pass who works part-time while inspecting some rental properties. The fact that she plays at the casino is not a sign of fortune, nor a good hope for more spectacular financial rewards.
Yet all this changed in the blink of an eye last June when Claudette went to a certain place as usual and drove back home in a $30,000 silver Saturn Sky convertible after playing the penny slots at the Spirit Mountain Casino. Even though details of her now became much more attractive, she was not the first such case and could find herself a place in the world of . The event was something to celebrate yet since the universe of casinos and winners comprises many interesting details her name was not quite something you can’t forget.
But there comes the really hot part. The same Claudette Osborn continued playing the type of games that made her so lucky: the casino games. And luck stroke her again last week as it was a shiny-red, $20,000 Volkswagen Beetle that she drove home. Again, this was the car she had just won. This time, the accumulated wins add up to a story far beyond the common. This can’t be denied by any material dealing with the world of .
The irony of the story is that Mrs. Osborn could have missed her second prize because of a poker game she was playing where she had just obtained a full house. Because it was her first house in that game, she couldn’t give up at first. It was Valentine’s Day and she was with her husband, Dale at Seven Feathers. Perhaps it’s in the spirit of players of such engaging games to put so much passion in it they can’t interrupt themselves. Yet economical reason triumphed as Claudette realised she had to choose between possibly winning $100 at best or taking her place next to other four finalists for winning the Volkswagen Beetle, which she did in a hurry.
The round between the last five competitors was very exciting and tensioned. Each had to pick a heart shaped box. All the others obtained prizes of $500. For Claudette the stress was greatest as she was the last one to choose. But where nerves are stretched at maximum the reward is always just as great. Because the person before her had also stricken just the 500 dollar pit she new already she had one and everyone congratulated her.
Osborn was however no folk stricken by poverty. She also owned a Toyota Camry, which she sold in exchange for the Saturn Sky to pay her taxes on her “gifts”. She claims she will let the Volkswagen in the garage for a while enjoying her Blue Camry.
Claudette showed off her rich tastes when stating that the VW was her first true present for Valentine’s Day.
