Gambling Geeks, It's Finally Here

Let me explain. A little over a year ago, the idea popped into my head to combine the thrill of gambling with my passion for Star Wars. I felt inspired, so much so that I created a video slot machine, not unlike the popular Price is Right interactive slots you find in just about any Vegas casino. My version had Darth Vader, Obi-Wan and Tie Fighters instead Bob Barker and Plinko.

I even went so far as to pitch my idea via email to IGT, one of the largest design and manufacturer of video slots, located in southern California. I never heard from them. Imagine my surprise when I got this month’s Star Wars newsletter announcing the new Star Wars Video Slots from IGT.

I’m so torn! Although I could never prove it, I feel like I might have had some small part in this gaming machine coming to be and now I’ll never get credit for it. On the other hand, ITS A STAR WARS SLOT MACHINE!!!! YEAH!!!
