LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — An Ohio man will never forget how he spent his 21st birthday. Damon Howell visited Las Vegas with his family and friends to celebrate his milestone birthday and returned home a winner.

Howell was playing Texas Hold’em at The LINQ when he hit the MEGA Progressive jackpot for $362K. According to The LINQ, Howell was “overwhelmed with shock and disbelief, the birthday boy’s initial thought was that it was not real.”

After he realized it was real, he said he wants to buy a house with his winnings.
