They were watching your play. Next time you decide to go to Las Vegas, give them a call. A good Casino Host that is really trying to get your business will comp your stay and food for the time you are there (usually 3-4 nights) and provide limo service from the airport. But keep in mind, nothing is free. They expect you to play in that facility almost the entire visit. If you play and long, more than likely the comps will keep coming. If you don't play very long, the Host might not be as accommodating on your next visit. The overall job of the Host is to get the player and keep the player happy by using comps, but on the flip side, still making and keeping the money at that casino. My host in Atlantic City is really good. He makes sure I am invited to all of the parties, etc. in turn, I give him gift cards for the holidays (they cannot accept cash). I don't do that for my host in Las Vegas since I am only there twice a year, and my gaming at those facilities is enough.
Take advantage of their offer, they will make sure you have a good time. I would contact them via both phone and e-mail.
Comps are really great. Once they start coming, you don't really pay for much (ie. rooms; food; shows). If you play enough, sometimes they will arrange for your travel to and from the location. The quickest way to acquire comps is through playing the slots. The points accumulate much faster.
Take care and enjoy!

You've probably reached the next level or top level in the player's club card. It's based on what you play and the amounts you play and how long you play. You obviously played enough to draw their attention. A casino host facilitates things for you such as reservations, hotel, restaurant, favorite table to play, limo services and just about any services that the casino offers. Call it going direct and cutting out the middleman. It's your choice whether or not to call the host. I recommend utilizing the host and be merry! As always, don't forget your head when gambling and "the house always wins". Good luck.

You are probably the type of customer the casinos like to have. I will definitely contact them. You will definitely be comp-ed big time on your next visit. Make sure you have applied for the MGM MIRAGE players club card. Here is how to apply.

Another great card to have is the Harrahs Total rewards card.

They are your ticket to Vegas freebies. Don't leave home without them.

Maybe the next time you went to Vegas they could give you some sort of discount, or maybe they wanted to accompany you on your trip, but I doubt that. They probably just wanted to give you some sort of discount. If you contact him, you should probably email him, because it would be a lot quicker than sending him mail.
Hope This Helps!

I think they just want to hang out with you, I would first e-mail them and tell then you are coming, when u are there call them.
