Hilton Happenings
All of the casinos celebrated the New Year in style, but how many got national exposure? The Hilton's sold-out party with Kool & the Gang was featured on CNN's New Year's Eve broadcast with Anderson Cooper from Times Square. The celebration was shown live via satellite while the band played—what else?— "Celebration," proving that AC is the place to be for a good time. The Hilton also celebrated the grand opening of its poker room by holding the room's first poker tournament. Hosted by the "Jersey Guys" from NJ 101.5 FM, the event featured a live broadcast and 60 competitors who won the right to play through a radio contest. The contest ended in a tie between Jeff Hickman and Travis Christ, who split the $1,000 grand prize.
