According to a news release shared with Fox News, Kevin won the jackpot from an International Game Technology Megabucks slot machine Thursday afternoon around 12:30 p.m. He reportedly put only $40 into the machine before his monumental win.
It was the largest slot machine jackpot Nevada has seen in eight years, according to Boyd Gaming – the owner of Suncoast Casino.
'It was certainly a Christmas Eve to remember,' a spokesman from Boyd Gaming told Fox News. 'We're excited and honored we could play a part in this historic holiday jackpot at the Suncoast.'
Kevin, whose identity was being protected for safety reasons, said he divides his time between Las Vegas and Alaska.
He told Boyd Gaming that he intends to use his winnings to support his business and 'pay it forward.'
Social media users on Facebook have extended their congratulations and well wishes to Kevin.
'Congrats!!!!! I can't even win a $100 and I'm there every weekend,' one user wrote with a laughing emoji.
'Wow,' another person chimed in. 'Merry Christmas to you.'
