Michael Gaughan, owner of South Point, hosted a special game of blackjack on Friday afternoon with Elite, one of Budweiser’s world-famous Clydesdales; King, Budweiser’s iconic Dalmatian; and Ryan Growney, general manager of South Point.

Following Elite’s procession through South Point, Gaughan, Growney, Elite and King sat down for a spirited hand of blackjack in which all four came away as winners after a dealer bust. In the excitement of the table win, King decided to jump onto the table, bringing cheers from the surrounding crowd.
