Remember how popular July 7 was last year (7/7/07)? Several casinos are trying to rekindle the magic this year on Aug. 8 (8/8/08) with food, entertainment and gaming specials. The Fiesta Rancho, Fiesta Henderson and Gold Coast have announced 8x points (see below), and it is a good guess that more casinos will follow suit. The Plaza is having a drawing at 8 p.m. for one $808 grand prize and eight $88 cash awards. Beginning at 12:01 a.m., slot players earn one ticket for every 88 points and must be present at the drawing to win. Table players also can earn entries by hitting a four-of-a-kind in eights, getting a pair of eights at blackjack, winning on 8, 18 or 28 at roulette or by hitting a hard eight at craps.
