"Ms.
Craps" to You.
New Jersey Grandma Sets World Record

On May 23, 2009, Patricia
Demauro, a grandma from New Jersey beat trillion-to-one odds by throwing
a 4 hour, 18 minute lucky streak at the Borgata in Atlantic City.
With only a $100. buy–in, Patricia rolled
154 times before crapping out.
The hotel broke out the champagne after her
stupendous feat.
Demauro eclipsed the former
record of an Hawaiian man named Fujitake back in 1989.
It is unknown how much money she made during
the roll, but you can well imagine the side bettors had a field day.
An interesting aside about "Mr.
Golden Arm" (Fujitake) is the club that sprang up after his famous roll.
Every year club members meet and and celebrate the "Master's" famous
roll and to
introduce new members to "The Golden
Arm Club." Do you suppose that there are special requirements
to gain entry in the club? Do you have to do a one-hour roll
yourself? Do you have to be able to cite Craps odds and pass
some kind of special Craps test? I suspect entry requirements
are lax.
Unfortunately, Mr. Fujitake has now passed on to the Great Craps
Table In The Sky, but Patricia is doing interviews on a ongoing
basis.
Patricia, we who throw the dice
salute you!
