Hooters Casino —

Now Open!

Since taking over in 2015, Hooters Casino’s new management team has been making property-wide changes in an effort to better feature the property as the Las Vegas Strip’s premier destination for fun. “Having a good time is why people come to Vegas” says Hooters Casino General Manager Michael Storm. “With all the big, fancy places popping up

everywhere, we felt it was important to focus on what makes Vegas great. Las Vegas is the only place on Earth where everyone comes here expecting to have a good time, and the Hooters brand is built around fun!” Among the most noticeable of the changes are: the renovation of all 657 rooms; brand new multiplayer Craps, Roulette, and Blackjack electronic table

PROMOTION

Hooters girls games; a brand new party pool area outfit with beer pong, basketball games, and giant beach balls, upgrades to their Hooters and Pete & Shorty’s restaurants, and more offerings to be unveiled in the coming weeks. Hooters Casino also offers a full entertainment lineup with acts like Rock Fantasy, a classic rock experience featuring an ever-changing lineup of music from Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, David Bowie, Axl Rose, and more, all performed by artists who look and sound just like you remember. Comedy Daredevil features America’s Got Talent’s favorite thrill-seekers Ryan Stock and Amber Lynn performing daring stunts and acts of insanity. Starting March 23rd, Jarrett & Raja bring their globetrotting Music and Magic Spectacular to Hooters Casino’s brand new Jarrett & Raja Showroom, where fans will be able to enjoy a delicious Hooters dinner along with a blockbuster Vegas show! Other changes can’t be shown in pictures – Hooters Casino has placed top-quality customer service at the core of everything they do. Says GM Michael Storm, “We come to work every day knowing it’s our duty to give our guests everything they need to have a good

time. Whether you’re being greeted with a smile at the front desk, getting cheered on by your blackjack dealer, having wings delivered to your room 24/7, or simply chatting it up with one of the Hooters Girls who are everywhere on property, we want the folks who come here to know they can count on us to give them the Vegas experience we all used to take for granted.” Starting from the moment you arrive (Hooters is one of the few properties still offering Free Parking), Hooters Casino offers a break from the overpriced options available elsewhere while giving you an enjoyable experience in a comfortable, laid-back environment. Storm adds, “I dare anyone to find a better deal on the Strip. We provide the types of offers that have always made Vegas great in an environment that makes you feel welcomed. You shouldn’t have to break the bank to enjoy yourself when you come to Las Vegas, even on the Strip. Come to Vegas, have fun. That’s what this town’s about, and that’s what we’re all about at Hooters Casino.”
