Harvard lounge first in county to offer video gaming
HARVARD – Tom Orr inserted a $5 bill into a video gaming terminal, looked down at the lit-up board of buttons, and popped the flashing green “play” button.
Two dollars down. He popped it again. Two more dollars down.
He put in $10 more Tuesday, and then he got hot. In no more than 10 minutes, Orr cashed out with $40 to become the first McHenry County resident to gamble – and win – at one of the terminals.
