HIGHLAND, CA – To celebrate the 30th anniversary of IGT’s Wheel of Fortune Slots and reward Club Serrano members, Yaamava’ Resort & Casino hosted a special player event featuring Wheel of Fortune co-host and entertainment icon, Vanna White. The daytime event was the culmination of an engaging multi-week casino promotion centered around the casino’s global debut of IGT’s Wheel of Fortune Cash on Reels Slots, a multi-level progress game on IGT’s Rise55™ cabinet.

Guests at the California casino gathered as Vanna White appeared on site, interacting with attendees, posing for photos, and participating in drawings that awarded five guests $1,000 each in free slot play. Vanna surprised three additional Club Serrano members during a hot‑seat promotion, awarding them $1,000 in free play and a chance to win $5,000 in cash.

“For three decades, I’ve really enjoyed surprising people playing IGT’s Wheel of Fortune Slots of all kinds and wishing them luck,” said Vanna White. “Celebrating the 30th anniversary of IGT’s Wheel of Fortune Slots with Yaamava’ Resort & Casino was the perfect way to kick off a year full of excitement. Stay tuned for more to come!”
