CASINOS LOVE SENIORS!

Take advantage of your senior status

By H. Scot Krause

 

By government standards you may not be considered a “senior” until you’re 65, but thankfully at many of our favorite casino’s, being a youthful senior can be a good thing! Senior promotions are popular at many casinos across the country and especially so in Las Vegas.

For guests 50 years and older, Station Casino’s and Fiestas in Las Vegas have introduced “MyGeneration,” formerly Seniors 50+ Wednesdays, offering the following benefits.

Every Wednesday of each month will feature food and beverage offerings as well as new gaming programs, among other benefits. This month, Wednesdays in February offer for MyGeneration guests include half point dining in all Station Casinos or Fiesta steakhouses and cafés, and a $9.99 chicken fajitas special at Cabo inside Boulder Station, Palace Station or Sunset Station, Amigo’s inside Fiesta Henderson and Garduños inside Fiesta Rancho. Guests may also enjoy a free tall cup of Starbucks coffee from any Station Casinos Starbucks location and can redeem that day by printing out a voucher each Wednesday at the Rewards Kiosk.

MyGeneration players can also enjoy the $108,000 Hot Seats Slots and $72,000 Bingo Bonus. The $108,000 Hot Seats Slots will award one lucky MyGeneration Boarding Pass member with $100 in free slot play loaded directly to the player’s card every 20 minutes from 10 a.m. to 8p.m. Players must be actively playing slots or video poker and have their Boarding Pass card inserted at time of play in order to qualify. Also every Wednesday, the $72,000 Bingo Bonus will award a bingo winner with $25 in free slot play in addition to their cash winnings on each game during each session.

Popular programs including $4 movie tickets, half-point bowling and weekly free slot tournaments will continue, although the programs may undergo variations from month to the month. The $108,000 Free Slot Tournament will run from10 a.m. to 7 p.m., with the top prize of $1,000.First entry is free with the option for four more entries by earning 50 base Boarding Pass points for each additional entry. The $4 movie tickets are valid for movies before 6 p.m. (additional charge for IMAX and 3D.)

Every Monday, 15 names will be randomly drawn at 2 p.m., 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. using the Total Promo computer drawing system during the designated drawing times to determine the winners. Each winner will visit the players club to pull an envelope that will contain the amount they have won. Prizes are $1,000 cash, $500 cash, $250, $150, $100 and $50 in Free Slot Play.
