"Heroes & Miracles" to Honor 15 of the Lucky Chilean Miners and Several Other Courageous Individuals at Seminole Casino Coconut Creek, Feb. 4; Press Conference, Feb. 3

All proceeds to benefit the United Mine Workers of America Miners Aid Fund, the American Cancer Society and Disabled American Veterans.

Coconut Creek, FL, February 02, 2011 --(PR.com)-- The man who gave his guests a free trip to space, an oil well, and served dinner on a platform hundreds of feet in the sky, is now bringing 15 of the rescued Chilean miners – who must be among the luckiest people (on or under) earth – to a popular South Florida casino.

Steve Bonner, general manager of Seminole Casino Coconut Creek has earned a reputation in the casino industry for his crazy, attention-grabbing promotion ideas. But inviting guys who were lucky enough to survive against all odds to a casino known as “Florida’s Jackpot Capital” could backfire on him.

“It’s true – they could be our next big winner. But hey, we’re in the business of chance and making people’s dreams come true,” said Bonner.

The casino became widely referred to as the sunshine state’s jackpot capital after a string of million dollar-plus slot machine hits over the past three years.

But there’s a serious side to the miners’ visit too. It’s part of an inspirational program, “Heroes & Miracles” – with all proceeds going to three charity groups: the United Mine Workers of America Miners Aid Fund, the American Cancer Society and Disabled American Veterans. -- at Seminole Casino Coconut Creek on Feb. 4 at 7 p.m.

Other honored guests at the $100 per person event will be Mike Jones and Ginger Littleton, hero and heroine of the Panama City School Board shooting, All My Children actor/war veteran J.R. Martinez, Paralympian Bradley Johnson, and miraculous cancer survivor, Ana Gospodinoff. They will tell their life-changing stories and be honored during a special tribute. Tickets are available at the casino cashier’s cage or through www.brownpapertickets.com. All money will be donated to the United Mine Workers of America Miners Aid Fund, the American Cancer Society and Disabled American Veterans.

On Feb. 3 at 2 p.m. a press conference will be held at the casino with all of the honorees.

The Pavilion at Seminole Casino Coconut Creek is located at 5550 NW 40th
