Wheeling Island Fuel Daze Giveaway finale draws big crowds for grand prize drawing!


WHEELING, W.Va. (April 18, 2008) — William B. of Rayland, Ohio, was the winner of Wheeling Island’s Fuel Daze Giveaway grand prize drawing for $15,000 cash or a tanker of gas, capable of holding 9,000 gallons of gas when full.

William’s entry was drawn from the entry barrel at 10pm tonight in the Wheeling Island showroom, as the casino concluded its Fuel Daze Giveaway event. The giveaway was the first of its kind in West Virginia and drew big crowds to the casino showroom for the grand prize drawing.

Leading up to the grand prize drawing, 14 lucky guests won $100 gas cards every 30 minutes from12pm-7pm.

Wheeling Island guests were eligible to receive one free entry with their Wheeling Island Players Club card on Fridays, April 4, 11 and 18 and earned bonus entries based on their slot and table play.

To commemorate the event, a tanker of gas was on display in front of Wheeling Island from 7pm-8pm tonight compliments of Tri-State Petroleum.

Someone needs to call and see which option the winner took. I doubt his cash grew by 15-20% in the last 5 weeks if he chose that option.
