Fruit Machine Chat

Has anyone got any favorite wins which stick out amongst all the ones you have had?

I have 3, first one was my first big win on a fruit. Got 3 diamonds on Fortune n glory and got £60 ( i was 16 and getting £20 a week as a pot man) second was going to work as a barman with no cash (moved up from the potmanlol) and finding £30 in notes then getting a J20 and putting £3.50 change in Arcadia and getting £50 and last was sticking my last tenner till payday in Rainbow on £2 and getting silver pot for £183

Stuck a quid in Max-a-million when i was 15 and got the top streak for £78. i was shaking like a shitting dog and surrounded by scallies!

Also got a 140 top on Bucks Bunny about 2 years ago. Which was nice.

When i got my first club JP i just thort u coot you have owed me that for ages, no emotion lol

Hitting an old Ace machine that went mental,

Payrirse i think it was, JP was £4.80 in tokens

The machine just did one mad run, every 2nd spin was a £2 or £2.40 win - always a cash win, no tokens

Went for about £80!!

Sticks out because I had a taxi turn up to go to next pub, it was gone by the time I'd collected the cash :x

Lines were free !!!

I did make a bit of cash now and again in the pub working changing stake when someone had left 20p / 10p in

Fond memories!

Dunno how old you are but i had fond memories of walking in nobles with £5 and getting 8 hours off 5p Dracula, Squids in, The mob etc and leaving with £10 and full of sarnies and pop at 15 lol

just nitpicking but j20 wasn't about in arcadias hey day .





as for my all time fave ,,,,,,,,, a 2p fruit cracker , jp held 3 times ,,,,,,,,,

8 quid in me pocket made me the richest boy in the arcade :P

It might have been 55 but one of the glass bottled soft drinks. It was class cos the hi lo made people more brave in a nighclub so the amount of times it dropped was un real

Glass Collecter

Wasnt that, i do remeber days of carrying J20 and 55 in mass loads. Arcadia was player proof as clubs open late. We looped the exchanges until we got the bonus six for step to a one on a good nudge win then that did us.
