50/50 Raffle

Official Rules

1.      General. By participating in the Vegas Baby 50/50 Raffle (“Raffle”), entrants agree to be bound by these Official Rules and by the decisions of Vegas Baby Bowling (“VBB”), which shall be binding and final as to all matters related to the Raffle. The Raffle is subject to all applicable federal, state, and local laws and is void where prohibited.

2.      Net Proceeds. All proceeds of the Raffle will benefit the VBB league. Net proceeds from each game will be allocated to the end of season tournament.

3.      Eligibility. The Raffle is open to all people age eighteen (18) and older and subject to these Official Rules.

4.      Purchasing Raffle Tickets. All Raffle tickets (“RT's”) may be purchased as follows: one (1) RT for $1.00; six (6) RT's for $5.00 or fifteen (15) RT's for $10.00. There are no discounts or complimentary RT's. RT's will be available for purchase in-person at the (“Bowling Alley”). There is no limit to the number of RT's an individual may purchase. Entries which are or appear to be tampered with are void. VBB shall be the sole judge of the validity and eligibility of all entries. All RT purchases shall be final, and no refunds or replacements will be issued by VBB. RT's are only valid for the drawing held on the date of purchase.

5.      Raffle Tickets are Not Tax Deductible. The IRS has taken the position that amounts paid for chances to participate in raffles, lotteries, or similar programs are not gifts and, therefore, the price of the entry does not qualify as a deductible charitable contribution.

6.      Prize. Each winner will receive a prize equal to fifty percent (50%) of the gross total proceeds from RT's sold for that drawing. Multiple drawings will occur if the total proceeds from the sale of RT’s exceeds $60. In the event of multiple drawings the least amount a participant can receive is $30. During the “Tournament” in Las Vegas, Nevada there will be a one-hundred percent (100%) payout spread out over several draws. The minimum amount paid out per draw is $50.

7.      Taxes. Each winner shall be responsible for any and all travel, costs, federal, state and local income or excise taxes, fees, assessments and like charges associated with a prize.

8.      Selection of Winner. A minimum of one (1) RT will be drawn by VBB either by computer or by drawing a ticket to determine the winner of the prize. The number/name of the winning RT will be announced in the bowling alley.

9.      Prize Claim.  You must be present to win. Upon successfully identifying yourself as a winner, present your RT to VBB for validation. Once your RT has been validated you will receive your prize.

10.  Odds. The odds of winning the Raffle depend on the number of RT's purchased for the drawing.

11.  Transfer of Raffle Tickets or Prize. Persons who purchase RT's may opt to give away their RT to other eligible persons, but in doing so the purchaser waives any claim that he/she might otherwise have to the prize. Purchasers of RT's may not re-sell their RT to other parties, and may not knowingly give RT's away to others for the purpose of allowing those other parties to re-sell such RT's. All RT's which have been resold in violation of these Official Rules shall be void. All individuals who re-sell, purchase, or receive RT's in violation of these Official Rules shall be ineligible to participate in the Raffle or to win a prize. A winner may transfer his/her prize to a third party provided that the following conditions are met: (a) the transferee would have otherwise been eligible to enter the Raffle (age eighteen (18) or older); (b) the transferee shall be responsible for all taxes and costs described in these Official Rules; and (c) the transferee shall be bound by all terms and conditions of these Official Rules that are applicable to the winner.

12.  Judges. The Raffle will be conducted and supervised by VBB, whose decisions are final. VBB reserves the right to modify these Official Rules at any time. VBB reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to cancel or suspend the Raffle should unauthorized human intervention or other causes corrupt the administration, security, fairness, integrity or proper operation of the Raffle.

13.  Release of Liability. By entering into the Raffle, all entrants agree to: (a) be bound by these Official Rules; and (b) release VBB from any and all liability with respect to any injury, damage or loss that may occur, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, from the participation in the Raffle, or from any travel or activity related to the receipt or use of any prize.

14.  Publicity Release. Each winner, by accepting a prize, grants VBB and its designees and affiliates, including the bowling alley, full permission, except where legally prohibited, to use such winner’s name, address (city and state only), photograph, voice and/or other likeness, and prize information for advertising, trade and promotional purposes without further compensation and without notice, review or approval, in all media now known or hereafter discovered, worldwide and in perpetuity. Each winner shall execute all documents that VBB may require to be signed in connection with this release. Should a winner elect to not have their picture taken or refuses for their likeness to be used in all media the winner shall forfeit the prize.

15.  Governing Law. The Raffle and these Official Rules shall be subject to and governed by the laws of the State of Arizona. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds that any provision of these Official Rules, or their application to a particular persons or circumstances, is invalid or unenforceable to any extent, then the remainder of these Official Rules shall remain enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. The venue for any cause of action arising out of the Raffle or these Official Rules shall be located in Maricopa County, Arizona.
