Fremont Street Experience hosted a SlotZilla Charity Challenge to benefit the American Heart Association in honor of the 2015 Heart & Stroke Walk and Run.
 
On Saturday, Nov. 7 from 10 a.m.-5 p.m., 100% of SlotZilla revenue from flights on the lower Zipline ($20) or upper Zoomline ($40) went to the American Heart Association.
 
Fremont Street Experience Director of Marketing, Thomas Bruny, presented the organization a check for $19,960 on Monday, Nov. 16.
 
“We are thrilled that so many people came down and supported the American Heart Foundation by participating in the Heart Walk and then staying afterwards to fly on SlotZilla,” said Bruny. “We ended up setting the largest SlotZilla Charity Challenge record with $19,960 and all of that money will go to this terrific organization that is devoted to saving people from heart disease and stroke.”
