The longest recorded sequence of the same color in roulette occurred at the Casino de Monte Carlo in 1943, when the ball landed on red 26 times in a row. This highly unusual streak attracted attention from players and media, as it defied the odds and caused many to speculate about patterns or luck. Despite the seeming anomaly, the outcome was purely due to chance, as roulette is a game of random results, and each spin is independent of previous ones.
