Only at the Las Vegas Hilton can you get a $250,000 game show and a $250,000 jackpot in the same month. Marilyn Bowen won $250,000 playing slots October 22 at the Las Vegas Hilton. She won it in the same month that Bob Eubanks, along with Chuck Woolery and Jamie Farr brought some of America's most recognizable game shows together for the first time on one stage at the Las Vegas Hilton. The trio serves as rotating hosts of the “$250,000 Game Show Spectacular,” which started October 8. The $250K GSS has more winners on stage (more than 50 per show at nine shows a week) and gives away more money and prizes (more than $50,000 each week in guaranteed cash and prizes) than any other live game show in recent history. Showtimes are Monday – Saturday 1:30 p.m. or 3:30 p.m. Wonder if Marilyn Bowen wants to try to double her money?
