MISSISSIPPI GULF COAST - With the first day of summer quickly approaching, Beachfoot has made another appearance on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. This time the large, mysterious creature has left his footprint at IP Casino Resort Spa in Biloxi.

"Beachfoot was having a great time relaxing poolside, sipping a frozen daiquiri and enjoying a little Gulf Coast summer sun. He was looking forward to enjoying some hot slot action and a great night in Chill lounge," said Kim Goetz, marketing director at IP Casino Resort Spa.

With sightings from Bay St. Louis to Pascagoula, there's no telling where Beachfoot will be spotted next on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.

Visitors are encouraged to join the "Search for Beachfoot" by visiting the Biloxi Visitors Center or the Mississippi Welcome Centers on Interstate 10 during normal business hours for more details. Successful completion of the search by Labor Day weekend will qualify visitors for a chance to win a new Jeep Wrangler!
