When was the last time you walked out of a racetrack $1.2 million richer?

Well, that just happened to Barrie-area resident Jerry Best Monday night (November 26) after hitting a whopping progressive Jackpot in the slots area at Georgian Downs.

“This is going to change our lives, big time!" Best was quoted as saying in an article on simcoe.com. "My wife can retire finally and we can start enjoying life.”

"It’s always great to see one of our customers win such a big jackpot. It really makes a positive impact on our staff and our other customers when we have such a wonderful thing to celebrate," said OLG Slots at Georgian Downs GM Tina MacMillan. "We're glad we can provide excitement like this for the community."
