Record jackpot at Mardi Gras

A Miami woman hit the highest jackpot ever at Mardi Gras, going over $100,000.

The woman, who Mardi Gras officials said didn't want to be identified, hit at 2:17 a.m. on July 2 in the High Roller room on the Wheel of Fortune machine.

She played the machine several times, got up a couple times and she finally hit the jackpot on her third sitting, going $10 per push, according to the casino.

The previous Mardi Gras jackpot high was over $70,000, Mardi Gras staff said.
