Slingo Riches and a new way to get rich with Bonus Dollars

by Leave a Comment

A few spins at the slots?

Or a quick Bingo game?

We say combine the two and play Slingo Riches, the latest addition to BorgataCasino.com.

Slingo Riches puts a new spin on online casino games by combining elements of Bingo (including a Bingo-like card and balls) with the best of slots (spin button, paylines, and wild symbols).

Like what you hear? You’re going to love Slingo Riches even more because when you play (or any other game) during our Bonus Play promotion, you could earn as much as $300 Bonus Dollars.

Between May 28 and June 1, sign in to BorgataCasino.com and opt in to the Bonus Play promo. Then play online casino games and earn iRPs like always.

You can opt in anytime between May 28 and June 1, but the earlier the better. That’s because not only will you earn Bonus Dollars based on how many iRPs you earn per day, but the more days you play, the more Bonus Dollars you’ll receive.

For example, if you earn 400 iRPs playing two days, you’ll earn $75. But if you earn the same number of iRPs playing all five days, you’ll earn $300.

For more details, check out our BorgataCasino.com promotion page.

by Leave a Comment

With its 2003 debut, Borgata introduced the destination spa experience to Atlantic City with the 36,000-square-foot Spa Toccare, followed by the 2008 opening of Immersion Spa at The Water Club. Crystal is the traditional gift for 15 years and Borgata’s spas are celebrating their milestone summer with a special menu of treatments – including a Crystal Healing Stone Massage, Diamonds in the Rough Facial, and a Shellac & Crystals Manicure.

Fifteen years of positive healing energy have been incorporated in our spas’ experiences.   On our 15th anniversary, we would love for you to experience our crystal infused healing stone massage.  The powerful energetic qualities of crystals, increased by the resonance of opening your chakras through tapping, allow our therapists to increase your vitality, clear chakra blockages, and balance your well-being.

5 Facts about ZZ Top, Coming to Borgata’s Event Center

by Leave a Comment

The legendary ZZ Top is headed to Borgata on May 25.  They’ll be teaming up with John Fogerty to present their “Blues & Bayous” Tour at The Event Center.  Before they arrive, we found out five fun facts about the American rock band who have been entertaining audiences since 1969.

What does the name “ZZ Top” mean?  It’s a fusion between B.B. King and Z.Z. Hill. Originally, the band thought of combining the two into “ZZ King”, but thought it too similar.  Band member Billy Gibbons then figured that they were going to be at the top, which brought them to “ZZ Top,” the name we all know today.

Yes, Billy Gibbons plays himself on the television series Bones.  Gibbons plays a fictionalized version of himself, as the father of the show’s character Angela.  In fact, here’s a fun Easter egg: Angela’s middle name is “Pearly Gates”, the same as Gibbons’s guitar.

Billy isn’t the only one who has screen credits.  The band has appeared in Back to the Future Part III, Two and a Half Men, King of the Hill, and WWE Raw.  Their song “Sharped Dressed Man” was a theme song for Duck Dynasty, where they also appeared on the show during a retirement party episode.

ZZ Top’s most popular album was Eliminator.  Released in 1983, the album has sold over 10 million copies in the United States and is diamond certified.  It includes the hits “Gimmie All Your Lovin,” “Got Me Under Pressure,” and “Legs.”

They’re in the top 100-selling artists in the United States.  ZZ Top has total record sales of 25 million.  That includes 11 gold, seven platinum, and three multi-platinum records as of 2016, with over 50 million albums sold world wide.

You can catch ZZ Top at The Event Center on May 25 at 8PM.  There’s a variety of VIP packages available, which include meet and greets and other special experiences.  For more information, or to purchase tickets, click here.

Miss’d America Brings Broadway to Atlantic City

by Leave a Comment

The Greater Atlantic City GLBT Alliance in association with Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa continues its annual tradition this year with the Miss’d America Pageant in The Event Center on Saturday, September 22, 2018. The Great White Way will be well represented at this year’s event with lavish sets, incredible numbers from some of Broadway’s classic and latest shows. This year’s show will be one of the hottest tickets in Atlantic City.

A not-to-be-missed entertainment event, the Miss’d America Pageant started in 1994 at a local Atlantic City club and was created as a spoof of the world-famous Miss America Pageant to raise funds for a local charity. It took place annually on the night after that famous beauty pageant, the joke being that the drag performers ‘missed’ getting into the real pageant at Boardwalk Hall. It ended in 2005 and was absent from Atlantic City for nearly five years, before making its triumphant return on January 31, 2010 and has grown larger and more spectacular every year since.

Carson Kressley returns again as the host of this year’s pageant along with the incredible Miss’d America Dancers, Special Musical Guest Frankie Z, Miss’d America 2018 Pattaya Hart and the Melanie Rice Orchestra. The show will be once again written and directed by the talented Mark Dahl.

Portion of the proceeds from the 2018 Miss’d America Pageant will go to the Greater Atlantic City GLBT Alliance who will distribute to various LGBTQ and LGBTQ supportive charities. Since its inception, the pageant has donated over $300,500.00.

A contestant search is currently being conducted in New Jersey, New York, Washington DC, Baltimore, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Delaware and many other states. Contestants are being asked to complete a submission form and submit a three-minute video of their talent for consideration by a very distinguished panel of entertainment industry moguls.

Tickets are $35.00, $65.00, and a $100.00 VIP Ticket, which includes one complimentary drink and admission to the post pageant meet and greet reception. $1,200.00 Diamond Tiara (table of eight) tickets are also available, which includes bottle service, a complimentary bottle of champagne, and admission into the post pageant meet and greet reception. The $100 and Diamond Tiara $1,200.00 tickets are only available by calling the group sales office at 609-317-1138.

All other tickets can be purchased at the Borgata Box Office, by calling 866-900-4TIX (4849), or online at www.theborgata.com. A $10.00 reception ticket is available in addition to the $35 and $65 tickets.

It’s a “Hipster’s Paradise” at Wolfgang Puck American Grille

by Leave a Comment

Wolfgang Puck American Grille is constantly evolving and perfecting their cocktail program, especially as the seasons change.  Their newest creation, The Hipster’s Paradise, is a perfect way to cool off with the upcoming summer weather.  It’s a wild combination of a cocktail that will have you wondering what exactly makes it so delicious.

 

The concoction is a smooth blend of Booker’s Bourbon, Sandeman Don Fino Sherry, Carpano Antica Formula Vermouth, Cointreau, simple syrup, Aztec chocolate bitters, and Kimo Sage Reposado Mezcal.  As if that wasn’t enough, it’s served on the rocks with a flamed orange peel.  That’s one boozy and fun drink!

Also, coming to Wolfgang Puck in the coming weeks: a brand new whiskey flight list and a reserve cocktail menu.  Find out more by visiting their website and stopping by the restaurant the next time you visit Borgata.
