After a record number of contestants were eliminated from a popular Circa football contest, the company is apparently feeling sorry for the losers and offering an “empathy package.”

The $1,000-per-entry Circa Survivor contest started with 14,266 entries. After two weeks of games, there are only 3,877 players left.

With just 27.2 percent of the original pool left to win the record $14.3 million prize, company officials agreed to introduce the “Circa Survivor Empathy Package.” Players were allowed to enter up to 10 times.

The casino announced Wednesday that any player who lost all their entries in the first two weeks of the season could redeem a two-night midweek stay at the resort and a daybed at Circa’s year-round pool amphitheater, Stadium Swim.
