The Sponsor will conduct random prize drawings on four separate days : July 24, July 25, July 26, and July 27, 2025 , from among all eligible raffle ticket entries received up to the time of each drawing. The odds of winning depend on the total number of eligible entries received at the time of each drawing.

If a potential winner cannot be contacted within five (5) days of the initial attempt, the Sponsor may select an alternate winner at random from the remaining eligible entries.

Potential winners must continue to comply with all terms and conditions of these Official Rules, and winning is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements. If a potential winner is disqualified for any reason, Sponsor will award the applicable prize to an alternate winner by random drawing from among all remaining eligible entries.
