Every Tuesday through May 30, Terrible's will draw the names of 25 players to receive $250, $500 or $750 in cash as part of the $100,000 Spring Shower of Cash. Participants have a choice of three tickets they can earn. Blue tickets (1,000 points or $1,000 coin-in) go into the drum for the $750 drawing. Yellow tickets (500 points) go into the $500 drum, green tickets (250 points) into the $250 drum. The drawings take place from 7-9 p.m. Winners not present can still pick up half of the prize from the casino cage the following day. All prize money not distributed will be added to the final May 30 drawing. Players can only win once per evening, and the drums will be emptied following the April 25 and May 30 drawings.

The New Frontier is giving away $250 every hour on Thursdays from 10 a.m.-7 p.m. There is no limit to the number of times players can win, but they must be present when their ticket is drawn.

The El Cortez is giving away official Major League Baseball Hats or a box of See's candy to anyone hitting a $200-plus jackpot on slots or a $300-plus jackpot on video poker. Players may opt instead for a $10 gift card from Mobil/Exxon, ARCO, Shell, Walgreens or Smith's.
