That's Just Great...

J.Lo's Mom Hits $2.4 Million Atlantic City Jackpot

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Jennifer Lopez's mother, a retired New York kindergarten teacher, scooped up a $2.4 million jackpot playing slot machines in Atlantic City. Guadalupe Lopez, 58, hit it big off a $3 bet on a "Wheel of Fortune" slot machine at the swanky Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa on Saturday night, a representative of her singer/actress daughter confirmed on Tuesday.

The haul represented a record slots payout at the Borgata, which opened last July.


Yeah, because I can't think of a family that needs more money...
