Boston-area man hits $3.9 million jackpot at airport

This is one airport experience Edward Frost will remember with fondness.

Frost, 49, of Raynham, Mass., won more than $3.9 million Tuesday playing a slot machine at McCarran International Airport.

The self-employed sanitary engineer, who put $20 in the Wheel of Fortune machine while waiting for his departing flight, said he went numb when he realized that he had won.

Frost said he intends to invest his winnings wisely but doesn't think the windfall will change his life significantly.
