Las Vegas—College basketball fans have the chance to take home a minimum $25,000 cash prize in the Station Casinos Last Man Standing Elimination College Basketball Contest. Registration begins Tuesday, February 27, at the sports books at Palace Station, Boulder Station, Texas Station, Sunset Station, Santa Fe Station, Fiesta Rancho, Fiesta Henderson, Green Valley Ranch and Red Rock Resort.
A $25 entry fee registers players to compete against Station Casinos’ contest line during the 2007 Men’s College Basketball Tournament. Players stay alive for picking a winner, or are eliminated for making a losing selection. One cash prize will go to the last player remaining, guaranteed at a minimum of $25,000—100% of all entry fees collected will be returned as prize money. Registration ends Thursday, March 15 at 9 a.m. Selection days will be March 15-18, March 22-25, March 31 and April 2. The opening round game on March 13 will not be part of the contest.
"College basketball fans are even more passionate than football fans,” said Art Manteris, vice president of race and sports for Station Casinos. “Last Man Standing is their chance to enjoy the thrill of a single elimination contest, while rooting for their favorite teams, and have the chance to win $25,000 while they do it."
Guests are limited to three paid entries per person. All guests who purchase three entries will receive a free bonus fourth entry. All guests will receive a free t-shirt with entry. One t-shirt per guest, while supplies last.
Contestants must be 21 or older. Boarding Pass points and Station Bucks may not be used for payment of entry fees. A valid photo ID must be presented by the winning player to collect prize. Complete rules for the Station Casinos Last Man Standing Elimination College Basketball Contest are available in the Sports Book at all participating properties.
