Richard B. had a life-changing day at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa. He walked away with a brand-new $100,000 Mercedes AMG GLE 53 SUV and played a role in the casino surpassing $2 billion in slot payouts for 2024.
He was playing the Dollar Storm – Caribbean Gold slot machine with a $0.25 denomination, betting $18.75 per spin. A $1,680 jackpot pushed the casino’s total payouts over the milestone. The casino celebrated by awarding Richard the luxury SUV for marking this significant moment.
“This is absolutely amazing,” Richard said. “I stopped in to play for just a minute, hit a jackpot, and suddenly I was whisked away to find out I won a car. I’ve been playing at Hard Rocks forever, but this is the first time I’ve ever won a car.”
The celebration didn’t stop there. Seminole Hard Rock rewarded 881 guests who were using their Unity Card with $25 in Bonus Free Play. This added up to $22,025 in extra rewards distributed during the event.
Steve Bonner, President of Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa, highlighted the importance of reaching the $2 billion milestone. “It’s exciting that we have paid out more than $2 billion in jackpots. We are always dedicated to providing exceptional guest experiences, while ensuring that each visit to Seminole Hard Rock Tampa is truly unforgettable.”
This marks the third consecutive year the casino has paid out more than $2 billion in jackpots. Since January, more than 723,505 jackpots of $1,200 or more have been paid, equating to almost two jackpots for every Tampa resident.
To put the $2 billion figure into perspective, it’s enough to buy Beyoncé’s $190 million Malibu mansion ten times or purchase six of the world’s most expensive superyachts, valued at $300 million each.
