Did Denny Hamlin win in Las Vegas?
Hamlin was asked a handful of quickfire questions after the win, which ran as follows.
Do Las Vegas casinos usually treat you well, or was this an anomaly? “They make sure I don’t pay for rooms in this city.”
Where were you at, and what were you playing? “It’s just a slot machine called Buffalos.”
But you’d never played slots? “That was the first time I’d played slots. My buddy plays them all the time, he gave up his hot seat for me and it worked out well.”
So you won two jackpots last night? “I guess there’s just an end where it starts accumulating, so there was a big one right before that and…that was the big one.”
