Ellis Island Casino Kicks Off New Football Contest

Online, August 20, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Ellis Island Casino is allowing fans to get in the game with its first annual football contest, Passport Pick 'Em. In its debut season, Passport Pick 'Em will have a prize pool of $100,000 in cash and prizes during the 2013 NFL season.

Local Football enthusiasts just need a Passport Players Club Card to join the Passport Pick 'Em contest and can sign up beginning August 27th. Players who participate all 17 weeks have a chance at qualifying for an impressive grand sum of $75,000 cash. On top of the grand prize, $25,000 in prizes and free slot play will be awarded throughout the season to each week's top players. To top off the year, multiple end of year cash winners and the season's top players will receive free passes to a VIP Big Game Party.

Known for its award winning onsite brewery and off-the-menu dining specials, Ellis Island is also rolling out unbeatable game day specials featuring $2 wing specials and a dollar menu that includes 20 oz. craft beers and hot dogs. Patrons can take advantage of even more drink specials alongside promotional models during Monday Night Football, when half time and end of game drawings will be held for signed equipment and memorabilia. Players can also win additional prizes throughout the night when they bring in their losing William Hill NFL tickets from Sunday's games.

Conveniently located one block east of the Las Vegas Strip, Ellis Island Casino & Brewery is home to the #1 microbrewery in Nevada and Mountain West Region. Complete with over 350 gaming devices and table games and amenities that include a 24 hour restaurant, afternoon BBQ and Karaoke Lounge, Ellis Island Casino is a favorite of locals and tourists alike.
