UNCASVILLE, Conn. – Mohegan Sun awarded back-to-back Wheel of Fortune MegaJackpots for the second time this month July 25 totaling an impressive $807,833.

Both jackpots hit on the Wheel of Fortune one-dollar progressive system, and were just hours apart. The first MegaJackpot to be paid was an incredible $501,397. The second was a $306,436 prize. Just fifteen days ago, on July 10, Mohegan Sun had an almost identical double play, paying a $515,247 MegaJackpot which was followed almost immediately by a $123,713 prize that hit on a Wheel of Fortune quarter machine, bringing this month’s MegaJackpot payout to an amazing $1.4 million.

Today’s winners both asked to remain anonymous, and both were surprised to find they had won the top progressive prize. The first winner said she was drawn to the winning machine because of the “big payout” but was “not feeling extra lucky today.” When she realized she had hit the MegaJackpot she commented, “miracles do happen!” The second MegaJackpot winner reported being “shocked at the amount” he had won and said immediate plans for his winnings will include “buying a house.”

Quadruple prizes in July brings the number of MegaJackpots paid so far this year at Mohegan Sun to 13, and the prize money payout total to an astounding $6.3 million. To date, 175 MegaJackpot prizes have been awarded at Mohegan Sun since 1996 totaling more than $120.4 million.
