Former Nun Wins Big in AC

A former nun's prayers are answered at Caesars Atlantic City.

Catherine Foy won a $1.5 million slot machine jackpot on the third pull of the handle.

The Philadelphia resident had played just nine quarters in the Jeopardy 25-cent progressive slot machine when bells started ringing Sunday.

The 56-year-old took home a check for $78,000. She'll receive an equal sum for the next 19 years.

The former member of the Sister Servants of the Holy Heart of Mary says she'll pay off her debts and share the winnings with her family and her former order.
