Comedian and actor George Lopez expands his presence at San Manuel Casino

Wednesday 2nd December 2020

Fans of comedian George Lopez have been able to visit his restaurant Chingon Kitchen at San Manuel Casino in Highland for a while, but now they have another way to celebrate their fandom: By playing one of the casino's George Lopez slot machines.

A bank of the new George Lopez Neighborhood Tour slot machines has been placed on the casino's second level just outside Chingon Kitchen. The slot machine debuted at San Manuel on Nov. 12, according to a news release from company Ainsworth Game Technology.

The game is based on Lopez's life and includes images of the comedian and custom voiceover messaging to communicate with players, according to the release.

One player visited San Manuel and posted videos of her game play at one of the machines. The reels of the game feature pictures of Lopez, microphones, flashing signs that say "Live Tonight" and other icons.

San Manuel has a history of offering slots based on recognizable figures in pop culture. Other recent additions to the gaming floor include slot machines dedicated to "Baby Got Back" star Sir Mix-a-Lot and Maroon 5 frontman and "The Voice" judge Adam Levine.
