The win came June 18 on the 1-cent machine.
“It was me and my girlfriend…I looked up at that $111,000 and said, ‘Oh man, that’d be sweet to win that,’” the winner told casino officials. “And no sooner than I said it — I hit it. How ironic”
He said he plans to split the win with his girlfriend and will use his share to help pay off a 22-foot Flagstaff camper that he had purchased the day before.
“This is the kind of story that stays with you,” said Michael J. Facenda, president and general manager of Sky River Casino. “This win is about the people and the moments behind it.”
The casino, which opened in 2022, spans 100,000 square feet with more than 2,500 slot machines and more than 80 table games. It has 18 restaurants and bars.
