During a special check presentation event at the D Las Vegas, Stevens and his Circa Sports team presented a multitude of checks, including:
- $9.26 million split equally among the four winners of Circa Survivor to Circus Master, IndianaJet, Jax Jags and LAJoneser
- $1 million to Circa Million V first place winner, Saint31

Circa Survivor 2023/2024 returned with a no-rake, hefty payout of $8 million guaranteed for the last entry standing, with additional funds added because entries exceeded. The contest consisted of up to 20 legs throughout the year, one for every week of the football season plus two special weeks. Each week, participants had to choose a team to win straight up, but the player could not pick the same team twice for the duration of the season. Thanksgiving/Black Friday and Christmas Day were each considered their own contest weeks. Entries were eliminated from the contest by selecting a team that subsequently lost or tied its game that week.
During Circa Million V, each player made five professional football picks against the spread each week. One point was awarded for each correct selection and one-half point for each push. Each entry for Circa Million V was $1,000, with a maximum of five entries per person. The contest included no rake, and any extra fees went into the quarter- and full-season prize pools.
Bettors were able to sign-up for the contests at any of Circa Sports six Nevada locations and entries for bettors outside of Nevada could register a proxy to submit picks from within the state.
Details for the upcoming 2024/2025 Circa Sports professional football contests will be announced in the coming months. For more information on Circa Sports, please click here.
