SAN DIEGO, Jul 31, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) — July turned out to be a cool month for 100,000 Viejas Casino winners. Thanks to Viejas’ Splash into Cash promotion last month, 100,000 winners won up to $5,000 in Free Play Cash, topping the biggest winner month in Viejas Casino’s history.

During the promotion, everyone playing slots with a V Club Card was eligible to win an Instant Bonus with any bet, on any machine. Once an Instant Bonus hit, players were paid in Free Play Cash up to $5,000, which could be used for free slot play and the opportunity to continue winning. In addition to Instant Bonuses, slot players are eligible to win the GonnaHit! progressive jackpot, which is guaranteed to hit by $20,000.

“Having 100,000 winners in July was a huge success. Viejas Casino guests have enjoyed more payouts more often and are having a really fun time with these promotions,” said Viejas Casino General Manager Jim Wild. “Viejas loves winners, and because of the overwhelming success, we are excited to award 100,000 more winners in August!”

Viejas is pleased to give their guests more opportunities to win, and save money on gas at the same time. Viejas offers free rides to all guests, and $5 Free Play Cash just for riding. V Club Card Members can receive up to $10 Free Play Cash for riding as well. The Viejas Shuttle Bus picks up at five convenient locations: South Bay, El Cajon, Mira Mesa, Kearny Mesa or Rancho Penasquitos.
