Casino fireworks, patriotic promotions and giveaways for July 3-4
There's nothing better than a Saturday July 4 holiday for casinos. That's because July 4 is usually a family night, everyone together watching fireworks. So some casinos can put events on July 3 -- and adults can justify sneaking away from the kids.
I wrote earlier about Seminole Coconut Creek Casino and Dania Jai-Alai, but here are some other promotions for the July 3-4 weekend. The gist: Two casinos are doing fireworks on the third, and one on the fourth.
Gulfstream Park offers a July 3 fireworks display, a $17.76 All-American buffet; live music and will give away three Jeeps.
The Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino has a fireworks display at 9 p.m. Friday, as well as a laser show, strolling musicians and a DJ at Center Fountain. The casino will give away $1,776 every hour from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Friday, Saturday and Sunday, then have $20,000 grand prize drawings at 7 p.m. each day. The poker room will have an Independence Day tournament at 11 a.m. Saturday. Entry is $575.
Mardi Gras will have fireworks at 9 p.m. Saturday and give away a 2010 Camaro at 10:30 p.m. Saturday. The casino also will have other giveaways and a barbecue.
Isle Casino and Racing will have an "Early Bird Sweepstakes" on Saturday, giving away $100 to 20 people starting at 11 a.m., then conduct a grand prize drawing of $500. The casino also will give away July 4 tote bags and offer up to five times its normal Players' Club points.
Seminole Classic casino in Hollywood will give away up to $500 in free play every 20 minutes from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. on Saturday. If a patron is not present to collect the prize, it rolls into the next giveaway.
