Satellite debris worth $1 million at Seminole Coconut Creek

As if a casino doesn't carry enough hope: The Seminole Casino Coconut Creek general manager is offering patrons $1 million if debris from the recently obliterated U.S. spy satellite falls on his property.

"They hit it with one shot, so we'll give our patrons one shot," General Manager Steve Bonner said Thursday afternoon.

Bonner says that if any portion of the exploded satellite lands on his turf, he'll have a $1 million drawing. Experts say the debris may take a few days to fall, so the offer ends March 10 (not coincidentally, the date Class III slots debut at the casino, 5550 NW 40th St.). The casino decides whether any debris found is other-wordly, and not planted by patrons with a get-rich-quick scheme in mind.

To push the stunt one step further, Bonner said he is having workers paint a bull's-eye on the casino, likely on Friday.
