Two
people by the names of Sittman and Pitt developed
a game in which 50 card faces were placed in five
separate drums.
The player would insert a nickel into the side
and press a lever that spins the drums. The object
was to get a good poker hand when the drums stopped
spinning.
This early version of slots was very popular in
bars and instead of winning money players won
free beer or cigars.
Not long after 1891, a San Francisco born man
by the name of Charles Fey developed the first
“one arm bandit” slot machine.
The year was in 1895. He created three spinning
wheels that each had five symbols.
This made it easier to automate the game in order
to give automatic payouts because it was much
simpler to read whether or not a player won.
The biggest payout the machine offered was ten
nickels. This game of slots became so popular
that Fey was unable to keep up with demand.
The second most popular slots game was a machine
which had pictures of fruit flavors as the symbols
on three wheels.
In fact, the "BAR" symbol which is now
a popular symbol seen in the slots today came
from the logo of the company that created the
fruit flavored slots machine.
The company was called the Bell-Fruit Gum Company.
The first slot machine that was fully electronic
was a game called Money Honey that was created
in 1964.
Slots has been an intensely popular gambling game
in the United States since its origin.
Thanks to the technological advances of the internet
we are now able to take slot machines to the next
level and play a computerized version online. |
