15 May 2018

(PRESS RELEASE) -- Foxwoods Resort Casino has reported slot revenue of $41.2 million for the month of April 2018. This figure is up 3% compared to $40 million in April of 2017. Handle for the month was $503.7 million, down 1.3% from the $510.5 million wagered in the same month in 2017.

Foxwoods Resort Casino kicked off April with a bang as a lucky winner from Coventry, Rhode Island hit a Progressive Table Games Jackpot, taking home a massive $952,579.04 cash prize. The winning continued with the $50,000 Rockin’ the Caribbean Giveaway, as five guests won all-inclusive trips to the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino - Punta Cana including round trip airfare, hotel accommodations and limo transportation. Massachusetts residents cashed in all month long thanks to the “Wicked Good Times” celebration which featured exclusive offers and prizes including sports tickets, cash and luxurious overnight stays.
