MontBleu prepares for big game weekend at Lake Tahoe
Four days of parties, games, competitions and tournaments are in the works to celebrate Super Bowl XLV at Lake Tahoe's MontBleu Resort Casino & Spa. The resort is pulling out all the stops in preparation for its Big Game Weekend, Feb. 3-6.
Kicking off the resort’s Big Game Weekend festivities, the South Shore Lake Tahoe entertainment hotspot will serve up non-stop action beginning with Local’s Night granting everyone $1 Drinks All Night on Thursday, Feb. 3 and Ladies Night offering free drinks for women on Friday, Feb. 4 at swanky Opal Ultra Lounge. Pre-game action continues on Saturday, Feb. 5 with a UFC bout as contenders Anderson Silva and Vitor Belfort square off on screens at The Zone, HQ and Café Del Soul beginning at 6 p.m.
Super Bowl Sunday packs a powerful starting lineup with the $6,000 Big Game Weekend Poker Tournament at 10 a.m. in the MontBleu Poker Room. For a $200 entry fee, aspiring champions receive $10,000 in tournament chips with bounties set on each participant giving players a chance to earn an extra $50 by busting the competition.
No alternates or re-buying will be permitted, so players should put on their best game face and prepare for battle. Limited to 40 players, the prize pool pays $2,400 for the day’s big winner with pay outs extending to $300 for sixth place.
The Big Game Party fires up at high noon in Opal Ultra Lounge offering football fanatics an afternoon of revelry in preparation for kickoff at 3:30 p.m. PST as the Green Bay Packers take on the Pittsburgh Steelers in the showdown from Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Super Bowl bets can be placed through MontBleu’s Sports Book until game time on a variety of propositions including first and second quarter scoring, half-time points spreads and final game results.
Raffle drawings during Super Bowl festivities at Opal offer attendees a chance to win prizes while enjoying tailgate treats of hot dogs, nachos, popcorn and thirst-quenching $6 pitchers.
Following the trash talking and victory dances, the evening heats up and celebrations continue into the wee hours of the morning with Opal’s no-cover Lingerie After Party starting at 10 p.m. with $3 You-Call-It Grey Goose cocktails and $100 Best Dressed Ladies Lingerie contest.
