While on a fishing trip on April 5, 2007, a very lucky man from Decatur, Michigan took part in a club keno game and won $6,775.
The lucky player, Michael Schultz said that he and his loved ones will not ever forget Branson because of the good fortune he had there. Michael Schultz and his wife Cindy played club keno at the Doc's Sports Club in Montgomery. Schultz chose to play the 7 number game.
Schultz chose 11, 17, 27, 58, 66, 71 and 77 as his winning numbers. He won a $5,000 prize as well as the $1,775 progressive jackpot prize. One of the first things that he bought for himself was a fly-fishing rod and a brand new hat.
He will also save some of the money in the bank. Players who take part in the 6, 7 and 8 number games can join the drawing for the progressive jackpot cash prize. However, if the money is not won during the round, it will continue to add up until someone wins it. The progressive jackpot money draw is a pari-mutuel, so if there is more than one winner, they will share all of the money depending on the winning shares.
