Finally Hit it Big!!!

in gambling •  6 years ago 

Hello fellow Steemians! Today I celebrated my 10th year at Target Field, home of the Minnesota Twins baseball team! I don't work as many games as I used to, but I hang on to it because it's one of those jobs that's "not work" to me. A group of us bartenders have had a tradition of buying split the pot raffle tickets during most games. This is a charity raffle where all the money is collected, half goes to charity and the other half goes to the winning ticket. Today we went at it again. Last year we got the closest to a win missing by one number. Well today we finally did it! No better day than opener to hit the winner as its usually the biggest one! We are not sure if taxes have been taken out prior to the listed winning amount or not, but either way it a good pay day on top of the great money we make working opening day.

I hope you enjoyed this post!

I forget what charity they donate the money to, but I remember it being a good one. Congrats on the win! How much was your individual take-home?

We haven't found out if they have already taken out the taxes or not. Its either around $2,400 or $1,400 per person depending on the tax situation.
