The Seminole Casino Coconut Creek and Seminole Casino Hollywood "Classic" have big car giveaways in May.

Last year, Seminole Coconut Creek casino gave away a car a day for the month of May.

“So we have to one-up ourselves,” general manager Steve Bonner said.

This month, the casino is guaranteeing at least a car a day, and up to 40 Mini Coopers, and the Seminole Hollywood Classic casino is giving away at least 11 and up to 59.

Seminole Coconut Creek will have a drawing daily and offer others via special events.

The monthlong promotion kicks off with a performance at 7 p.m. Friday by MiniKiss, a group of vertically challenged musicians that bills itself as the “world’s smallest tribute band.”

Regular car drawings will be at 9 weeknights and 6 p.m. Sundays. Saturdays vary. Thursdays also offer Wheel and Deal, where patrons pick a key and can either see if it fits the car or instead take an envelope for cash and free play.

On May 9, the casino will award a car to the patron who best guesses how many model-sized Mini Coopers are stuffed into a car.

On May 11, casino visitors can swipe their Player’s Club cards from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. for a chance to win a car. One card will have a predownloaded message notifying the winner.

A hot dog-eating contest is set for 7 p.m. May 16. The person who eats the most hot dogs will be among 10 names placed in a car drawing.

Seminole Hollywood Classic note that a unique facet of this promotion is that poker and bingo players also have cars to win.

Poker players who get four of a kind, a straight flush or a royal flush receive entry to a drawing at 9 p.m. May 26. Bingo players get entries each time they buy cards on Fridays or win a specific game. This drawing is 9:30 p.m. May 29.

The drawings with entries earned for slot play will be 10 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays. A special giveaway is set for 5 to 9 p.m. May 31.

Meanwhile, each Monday and Saturday, notification of a Mini Cooper award will be downloaded onto a Player’s Club card. Guest can swipe their cards on those days from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.

And Sundays, every 30 minutes from 3 to 7 p.m., guests whose names are drawn in the Cash or Cooper contest will pick a replica of a car. Each replica will be worth either $5,000 or a car.
