Whooo hooo... she's a widow
Widow, 84, Wins Record $10M Slot Jackpot

"ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. - For 84-year-old Josephine Crawford, the golden years just got a lot more golden. About to call it quits after a night playing slot machines, the Galloway Township widow hit a $10 million jackpot late Tuesday, the biggest in the history of casino gambling here.

The retired waitress knew when the nickel slot machine's bells went off that she'd won something but didn't know what. When a slot attendant at Harrah's Atlantic City casino told her it was $10,010,113.48, she didn't believe him.

"I said, 'Oh, come on.' But he just stood there and I figured, why is he staying there?" she said Wednesday."
