HIGHLAND, CA – AGS partnered with Yaamava’ Resort & Casino at San Manuel in Southern California for the world premiere event of its newest Rakin’ Bacon!® theme, Der Rakin’ Bacon! Representatives from Yaamava’ Resort & Casino and AGS celebrated the global debut in authentic style with a ceremonial keg tapping in honor of the Oktoberfest-themed games, Der Rakin’ Bacon! Hogtoberfest™ and Hogger Lager™.
Guests were immersed in a Bavarian Wunderland including live performances from German-band, a custom Yaamava’ and Der Rakin’ Bacon! branded keg and lederhosen koozies, and a special appearance from fan-favorite golden pig, Cornsquealius, donning traditional lederhosen and a Bavarian alpine hat. Yaamava’ partnered with a local brewery on a limited-edition Rakin’ Bacon! blonde ale beer that will be available for purchase at bars throughout the property while supplies last.
“Yaamava’ Resort & Casino continues to stand out as an exceptional venue – and an outstanding partner – for showcasing the creativity and collaboration behind a slot game world premiere,” said Mark DeDeaux, SVP and General Manager, Slots at AGS. “The lively energy and pure fun of the Der Rakin’ Bacon! games capture the dynamic relationship we share with the Yaamava’ team. We’re excited to continue building on this partnership to bring fresh, engaging experiences to players together.”
Der Rakin’ Bacon! is the 13th unique Rakin’ Bacon! theme since the game debuted in 2018. Building on the success of the franchise, both Der Rakin’ Bacon! games combine a three-pot collection feature with an added wheel bonus, giving players multiple ways to trigger features and chase jackpots.
“At Yaamava’, we’re always looking for new ways to surprise and delight our guests, and the debut of Der Rakin’ Bacon! delivers on every level – from the gameplay to the immersive Oktoberfest celebration surrounding it,” said Kenji Hall, GM at Yaamava’ Resort & Casino at San Manuel. “We’re proud to collaborate with AGS to bring this exclusive experience to life in a way only Yaamava’ can.”
The celebration will continue for a full month with an end-of-June party to close out the festivities, complete with Der Rakin’ Bacon! plush keychains, lederhosen koozies, and branded beer steins. Guests and Club Serrano members will be invited to gather for a live drawing on June 21 for a chance to win $5,000 in free play.
Der Rakin’ Bacon! will be available exclusively at Yaamava’ Resort & Casino for a limited time before expanding across the country.
