Monday, February 18 is Presidents’ Day, a federal holiday celebrating the birthdays of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. Whether you have Monday off work or are just looking to blow off a little steam, why not make a long weekend of it just down the road in Tunica? We promise not to tell your boss.

Promotions in Tunica are one way to collect your own presidents – the ones that are on one, five and even 500-dollar bills. All day Monday, Key Rewards members at the Fitz Casino can receive 3X Points on every machine in 3 Ways Fitz Pays. Insert your player’s card to earn the multipliers. At Bally’s Casino, 5 Card Charlie pays double for the winning hand in Blackjack and 21+3 games. New members at Resorts Casino get a mystery bonus that ranges from $10 to $500 in Free Slot Play.

If you’re getting to town a little early, Sam’s Town Casino has Spin and Win Fridays between 2 p.m. and 10 p.m. Sam’s Town will randomly select four winners to spin the prize wheel for a chance to win Slot or Table Dollars, buffet comps or merchandise. Sunday, Harrah’s Casino‘s Reward Credit Multiplier earns members Seven Stars 7x, Diamond 5x, Platinum 4x and Gold 3x multipliers. Hollywood Casino has a Sunday Superstar Slot Tournament where players can win a share of $7,500 in Free SlotPlay. The entry is free with 50 points earned in a day and for Celebrity and Producer members. Because we’re celebrating birthdays, I also want to tell you about Resorts Casino‘s Gadgets and Gizmos and Free Slot Play Giveaway. It’s going on Saturdays in February and ten winners have a chance to win a TV, iPad, laptop or game system. For a full list of Tunica promotions, click here.

And if you haven’t heard, bring your Southland Rewards Card to the Gateway to the Blues Visitors Center beginning February 8 through February 28 from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. and exchange it for a card worth $25 in Free Slot Play and a $5 food credit. “Ditch the Dog” and you’ll also be entered to win a high roller package.

As always, we’ve got plenty of action to keep you warm on what might be a chilly weekend. Stage bars will be hopping with some serious crowd favorites. On Friday and Saturday nights, Kenny Kidd will be at Roxy’s Live Stage Bar at Sam’s Town Tunica, The Mudpuppies will be at Safari Stage Bar at Hollywood Casino, Robe & The Rage will be at Stage Bar at Resorts Casino, and Deryl Perry will be at Tunica Roadhouse Casino and Hotel. And Almost Famous will be rocking out at Stage 2 at GoldStrike Casino Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights.

So head down the road and celebrate Presidents’ Day with lady luck.
