Casino Manager Bonu$ Cash Giveaway Days Are Back at Barona

$500 Every Hour All Day and All Night Dec. 12, 13 and 14


SAN DIEGO, CA--(Marketwire - Dec 9, 2011) - From Monday, Dec. 12 through Wednesday, Dec. 14, Barona Resort & Casino is ringing in the season and bringing back its three "Casino Manager Bonu$ Cash Days," as part of Barona's famous Golden Ticket cash giveaway.

Every hour beginning at 12 a.m. on Monday, Dec. 12 through Wednesday, Dec. 14, one of Barona's friendly casino managers and their staff will give a $500 bonus cash prize to one Club Barona member actively playing their favorite slots or table games. Club Barona members who have earned 500 myPoints or equivalent table games or poker play since 8 p.m. the evening prior, about an hour of play for most folks, will be eligible to win the daily cash prizes which total $12,000 a day for a total cash payout of $36,000 over the three days.

"The anticipation for our $250,000 Golden Ticket grand prize drawing on December 23 continues to build and now we are going to up the ante one more time," said Rick Salinas, general manager of Barona Resort & Casino. "Our players loved last month's bonus cash giveaways and asked for more so we are bringing it back one more time before the grand finale."

The Golden Ticket is the largest grand finale prize giveaway in Barona's history. Now through Dec. 23, Club Barona members can qualify any day to win one of 53 Golden Tickets. All you have to do is earn 500 myPoints any day and you will automatically be entered into a daily drawing for a coveted Golden Ticket. At 9 p.m. on Dec. 23, one of the 53 Golden Ticket holders is guaranteed to walk away with a quarter of a million dollars; 50 players who qualified for a Golden Ticket but didn't win one will also each take home $1,000 in cash.
