When we visited Sturgeon’s, a decade or two ago, I noticed that I could feed bills into the slot machines. It was in the early days of TITO machines, and I thought it would be cool to get a small TITO, to add to our “stuff” collection. I played a slot machine for awhile, and when the credits were down to about a dime I pushed the cash out button, expecting a TITO to come out. Nope. The machine locked up and started playing music; a message flashed on the screen that a hand pay was required…for a dime…a cringe-worthy moment, for sure! LOL! That was one way to learn that just because a bill could go into the machine, that didn’t mean that a ticket would come out… grin
