A man from Hartford, Connecticut, spent less than what you would spend on a value meal and turned it into a massive slot machine jackpot.
He’s only being identified by his first name and the first initial of his last name — Jose E.
He won $347,562.62 by betting $5 on a slot machine at Mohegan Sun’s Casino of the Sky.
The casino posted a picture of Jose in front of his winning machine on its X (formerly Twitter) account.

Dollar Storm Slot Machines Paying Off Lately
Jose hit the jackpot on the “Super Grand Jackpot” feature of the Aristocrat Gaming Dollar Storm Caribbean Gold machine.
According to the Aristocrat Gaming website, the Super Grand Chance awards the Super Grand jackpot or a large cash prize.
On a side note, it’s been quite a run for Dollar Storm machines so far in 2025.
A man recently hit a jackpot for over $100,000 on a nickel Dollar Storm slot. In December, another lucky gambler turned a $1 bill into a jackpot of over $900,000 at an off-the-strip casino in Vegas.
Mohegan Sun Casino Also on a Roll
The Mohegan Sun Casino has been as hot as the sun when it comes to handing out jackpot wins.
On the same day that Jose cashed in, another player won $110,103.55 with a $62.50 bet on the Aristocrat Gaming’s Lightning Cash slot machine, which you can also find in the Casino of the Sky’s Hold & Spin Slot Zone.
This comes on the heels of an unidentified player hitting the jackpot on the Jumanji: Next Level slot machine and taking home more than $1.3 Million.
If you’d like to try your luck at some slots without making the trip to Las Vegas, Connecticut or even your hometown, you don’t have to.
There are plenty of places online to play slot machines for real money. Just remember to set limits on your spending. Be responsible about your gambling.
