- In January, Mary Parenti of Elmwood Park, Illinois had a double stroke of good luck while playing slots at Hollywood Casino in Aurora, Illinois. Parenti won the $10,000 grand prize in the casino's "Pyramid of Cash Giveaway". She also received an additional $10,000 because she was playing at the casino the day before her name was drawn. Players received one entry for every ten points they earned through slot and table play.
- The Silver Legacy in Reno frequently hosts "Silver Dollar Days", a promotion which gives $1 and above reel players a chance to win a share of $170,000 prize pool. Last year, Lorin Inglis, a fisherman from Vancouver, B.C., was awarded $25,000 as the first place winner.
- While attending a Johnny Cash concert at the Las Vegas Hilton in January, William and Patricia Corless had a winning premonition. After the concert, the Las Vegans decided to try their luck at slots. They didn't hit a big jackpot, but their play earned them one entry into the casino's "Summer Cash Blast" promotion. In the daily drawing they won $2,500 and a shot at the grand prize, a $30,000 1996 BMW Z-3. Not only did the couple take home the cash, they also drove away in the BMW!
