Barona Resort & Casino's TGI Thursdays Lottery Grows to $140,000 on December 18

SAN DIEGO, CA--(Marketwired - Dec 17, 2014) - Barona Resort & Casino's TGI Thursdays Lottery will reach its highest point ever on December 18 with a jackpot that has grown to $140,000! Make your picks for drawings at 4 p.m. and 10 p.m. and make sure to stay for the Second Chance Drawing at 11 p.m. for more chances to win!

"This is the biggest jackpot in the history of our Barona TGI Thursdays Lottery and we couldn't be more excited," said Rick Salinas, general manager of Barona Resort & Casino. "We love giving our players extra chances to win big, especially during the holidays!"

Whether or not someone has the winning lottery numbers, there will be additional big winners during the Second Chance drawing at 11 p.m. For every Barona Lottery ticket earned since October 31, Club Barona members will receive a virtual entry into the Second Chance Drawing. Five lucky names will be drawn via virtual tumbler. If the $140,000 jackpot has hit earlier in the day, the Second Chance Drawing will be worth $20,000. But, if no one hits the winning lottery numbers, it will grow to $150,000 and all of the five lucky players whose names were drawn and are present will split the jackpot evenly.
