Strip casino throws in the towel on $200 free play promo
Treasure Island casino ended its $200 free slot play promo early due to overwhelming demand and long customer lines.Summary
Treasure Island hotel‑casino announced on Thursday that its $200 free slot‑play giveaway would not continue as planned. The promotion, advertised to run through September 7, drew massive crowds from its launch on Monday, with lines stretching two to three hours by Tuesday afternoon and reports of waits exceeding five hours on Wednesday. Because of the overwhelming response, the offer reached its intended capacity ahead of schedule, according to a news release from the property. The terms required the free play to be activated and used within 24 hours and played through once, after which any winnings or remaining funds could be cashed out. While many casinos provide free‑play incentives, few offer such a high, no‑strings‑attached amount to a broad range of gamblers. No further details were provided by the resort.
