Las Vegas, NV – In a shocking turn of events, The Mirage Casino in Las Vegas announced today that it must give away a staggering $1.6 million to its patrons before officially closing its doors for good. The iconic casino, which has been a staple of the Las Vegas strip for decades, has fallen on hard times in recent years and has been struggling to stay afloat in the increasingly competitive casino market.
The decision to give away such a large sum of money was made in an effort to attract more customers to the casino in its final days of operation. “We want to go out with a bang and show our loyal patrons that we appreciate their support over the years,” said Mirage spokesperson, Samantha Roberts. “We hope that by offering this incredible cash giveaway, we can give back to the community that has supported us for so long.”

Despite the excitement surrounding the giveaway, there is a sense of sadness among both patrons and employees of The Mirage as they prepare to say goodbye to a beloved institution. “It’s definitely bittersweet to see The Mirage closing its doors,” said longtime employee, Maria Ramirez. “But I’m grateful for the opportunity to work here and be a part of such a special place.”
