Texas Woman Wins $250,000 on December 23 at Coushatta Casino Resort

Grand Prize Drawing Winner Exclaims, "I Still Can’t Believe It!"

December 27, 2007

Kinder, LA -The excitement was so intense - it was almost as if the very air sizzled and popped … The grand prize drawing on the night of December 23 will remain one woman's fondest and most exciting memory.

Coushatta Casino Resort's 40-night $1.25 million cash prize giveaway climaxed with the $250,000 grand prize drawing on Sunday night, December 23, 2007. And when that winner's name was called, she was so overcome with emotion that she leaned on family members for support to walk to the winner's podium.

Mable Henderson of Refugio, Texas, a loyal guest and Coushatta Advantage Club member since 2001, was staggered at the enormity of her win. She stated, "Even right now, I can still hear them calling my name. They said, 'Mable,' and then a little pause, and then 'Henderson.' My daughter started shouting, 'Mama, that's you!' It didn't sink in until I got to Guest Services and then I still had to ask them, 'Are y'all playing a joke on me?' Nothing like this has ever happened to me. I still can't believe it. It's just amazing!" Henderson concluded, "We were going to come earlier in the month, but my brother convinced me to wait until December 23 for the big drawing. I said okay, I'll change my plans, and so we went on that night. I love Coushatta, and I never want to go anywhere else!"
