Mississippi plumber wins big at Fitz Casino & Hotel, Tunica

TUNICA, Mississippi -- (PRESS RELEASE) -- A 30-year-old man from Southaven, Mississippi has become the second multi-million dollar jackpot winner in less than a month at Fitz Casino & Hotel, Tunica.

Christopher B., who works as a plumber, was playing a $5.00 statewide progressive Wheel of Fortune machine on Sunday, July 21 when he hit the jackpot, worth $3,031,092.23

Mississippi's newest millionaire wasn't sure what he would do with his winnings, and said his only immediate plans were to celebrate with his family over dinner at The Steakhouse at the Fitz.

"We wish Christopher all the best, and we are already looking forward to our next big winner at the Fitz!"
