Whoa, 70s flashback: One of American’s top icons from the disco/punk era comes back to the entertainment world in this slick Vegas Technology offering colored with more red, white and blue here than the slap-happiest patriot can shake a Roman candle at.

As for jumping the shark, feel like a daredevil taking on Snake Canyon with two rocket thrusters: One $10 spin and got a neat $90. Boy, those WILD 1s really jack things up in the Land of Evel, eh? (Incidentally, did the software programmers pinch and adapt from the Harley-Davidson logo of that decade?)

And sometime in the midst of all those 70s prog-rock riffs and reels lining up with WILDs, Evel One’s influence on pop culture, particularly as his heyday coincided with the highly-impressionable pre-teen years of yours truly.

Amazing that a dude doing stuff our parents habitually chided us for and reportedly breaking every bone in his body along the way became a household name that survives to this day, nearly four decades later. What is it that makes a legend most? Is it the sense of adventure or is it – Wait, here’s another payout. Long live Evel Knievel!
