Lorenzo is the rain man of Spin-N-Win
by Joe Lauzon on May.07, 2009, under Blog, Videos
A bunch of the guys from my gym went to Dave and Busters last night. For those that don’t know, D&B is a bar/restaurant/arcade. We went and grabbed some dinner and then hit up games for a few hours. Early in the night April did the Spin-N-Win and won a thousand tickets. She was all pumped and we were too… because it was like her 5th play and she had so many tickets they had to reload the machine.
In comes Lorenzo who says he is pretty good at these machine. On his third turn, he hits for a thousand. His next third turn, hits for another thousand. And on his next third turn, yet another 1000. We chalk it up to amazing luck… except that he did it about 30 times out of maybe 100 tries.
And here he is gathering tickets…
Absolutely ridiculous. He ended up with 30,000 tickets. He bought a bluetooth headset, a Frappe maker and stashed away the other 21,000 tickets because he plans to go back and get a Nintendo DS for 38,000.

Was that the D & B in Providence?

Yea Drew, the D&B in Providence.
They loaded tickets once, and then Lorenzo tore through 3 rows of tickets. The guys were sitting there joking with us about the whole thing. I don’t think they cared about us wining, just that we were making more work for them.

That’s insane… how much money did he spend?

Not much… maybe $40?

Either my phone was broke(it wasn’t). Or it was geek night at D&B cause I know I didn’t get the call to go.
Must have been geek night cause I don’t see Brandon or Fred either…… And from here on in I will take ur advise from Tampa and just not comment…

Was a Wednesday night TOWK… you didn’t want to go. Fred was going to come, but worked late. Brandon is the biggest geek of us all. He just hides it the best.
