$1.3M casino winner makes emotional call to mom. ‘We’re leaving tomorrow!’

A man won a life-changing prize at a Michigan casino — and he couldn’t wait to tell his mother.

Firekeepers Casino Hotel in Battle Creek said in a Sept. 5 social media post a man named Anthony won what is believed to be the largest jackpot in the casino’s history.

Playing the Blackjack Triple Diamond Progressive game, Anthony won a massive $1,376,465.30 prize, according to the casino.

“This is one for the record books!” the casino said.

Casino officials said Anthony, from Indiana, placed a $5 Bonus Spin Xtreme side bet “when the mystery ‘must-hit’ progressive was randomly triggered,” leading to his “history-making payout.”

Celebrating beside the blackjack table, Anthony then made an emotional phone call to his mother.

“Mama, we are out the hood!” he is heard saying in a video shared to social media. “We’re leaving tomorrow!”

Bonus Spin Xtreme is available at several table games at the casino, offering players an additional way to win big. On a blackjack game, it is triggered when the dealer’s first two cards form a 16.

“Moments like this are why we design our tables and experiences to keep the energy high and the possibilities endless for every guest,” Steve Senk, vice president of gaming operations at FireKeepers Casino Hotel, said in a news release.

Battle Creek is about a 65-mile drive southeast from Grand Rapids.
