The investors have the prerogative to invest in one, a few, all or none of the ideas pitched to them. Tickets for the Pitch Night event will be limited to fewer than 300 and are $10 each. You can get yours here. Before the Pitch Night event, Shark Tank winner Jason Lucash will give a free presentation, “Pitching a Winning Idea,” from 6 to 6:45 p.m. at the casino.
