"The "Wheel of Fortune" finally turned the right way for New Orleans evacuee Jacquelyn Sherman.
On Tuesday, at Evangeline Downs Racetrack and Casino, she was playing a slot machine patterned after the popular game when she hit the jackpot.
Her winnings: $1.6 million before taxes.
"When it happened, I didn't know what was going on," Sherman said. "I had just put in my $20 in the "Wheel of Fortune" machine when it hit. My feeling about this win is better than being blessed. Thank you, Lord."
