December 30, 2012 (Alpine)–Thousands of people looking to get a jump on their New Year’s Eve celebrations gathered at Viejas Casino Friday night.

Friday marked the start of a four-day New Year’s Celebration at Viejas Casino. Each night, including New Year’s Eve, New York City’s Times Square is re-created at Viejas Casino, including a massive, 700-pound New Year’s Ball that drops at midnight, with a countdown and fireworks to ring in the new year.

Each night, the party is free and features New York-style food, drink specials, free music and dancing to the local band Rising Star and DJs all night. And each night from now until December 31, at 9pm, a Porsche Boxster will be given away on the Viejas Casino floor.
You have two nights remaining to practice that midnight kiss to officially ring in 2013…..
