VENTURA COUNTY MAN HITS $556K PROGRESSIVE JACKPOT AT CHUMASH CASINO RESORT

SANTA YNEZ, CA – June 2, 2023 – A Ventura County man plans to splurge on his grandkids after recently hitting a $556,120 progressive jackpot at the Chumash Casino Resort.

 Around 9:30 a.m. on Thursday, May 25, the winner, a guest who preferred to remain anonymous, was playing one of the 2X10X5X Bonus Times progressive machines in the resort’s Higher Limits room. He said it was on his second spin that morning that he hit the jackpot for over half a million dollars.

“I was just surprised that the three 10s came up,” the Ventura County winner said. “Every time I visit, I play that machine and the one next to it that is sitting at $1.3 million.”

 Without hesitation, he said he knows what he will do with the money.

“I’m going to buy my granddaughter a new car and give my other two grandkids money for a college fund. Oh, and pay taxes on it,” he said with a chuckle.

The winner, who says he frequents the Chumash Casino Resort once a month, had high praises for the resort’s staff.

“I enjoy coming up here to the casino and I do pretty good here,” he said. “The cashiers and slot attendants are always good to me and friendly, and my host Tiffany, she’s been great.” 

The Chumash Casino Resort also conducts its $100,000 Weekly Wheels Car + Free Play Giveaway, with the month of June featuring the versatile Toyota Highlander on June 11, 18 and 25.

This Sunday the resort will be holding its highly anticipated “Hitch the Fun” quarterly giveaway, featuring two exciting grand prizes – an Adventure Package and a Road Trip Package. The Slot Free Play drawings will begin at 5 p.m., with two lucky guests winning the grand prizes at 10 p.m.
