Limitations on Entries. LIMIT ONE (1) ENTRY PER PERSON.  No third party entry or entry through any sweepstakes service is permitted.  Any person who attempts or otherwise encourages the entry of multiple entries or false contact information under multiple identities or uses any device or artifice to enter or encourage multiple or false entries, as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion, will be disqualified.  Use of robotic entry devices (including but not limited to entries generated by script, macro or other automated or mechanical means) is strictly prohibited.

Any difference between the stated approximate retail value and actual value of the prize will not be awarded.  All other expenses not specifically mentioned herein are solely each winner’s responsibility, including any applicable federal, state, and local taxes and all other fees, expenses and incidentals.  Each winner understands there are inherent risks involved in travel to and from, and attendance to, Shi Stadium and these risks may be present before, during, and after the event.  Winner agrees to accept the prize “as is” and entrants hereby acknowledge that Sponsor, Rutgers University and Rutgers Athletics (together with Rutgers University, “RU”) are not in any manner responsible or liable for any warranty, representation, or guarantee relative to the prizes, including warranties provided exclusively by a prize supplier.

Each winner and winner’s guest must comply with all guidelines and rules for entry into Shi Stadium, as may be applicable. Each winner and winner’s guest must conduct themselves at all times in a socially responsible, appropriate and well-behaved manner; RU and/or venue may eject the winner and/or winner’s guest from the venue if the winner and/or winner’s guest behave in an inappropriate, belligerent or unruly manner as determined by RU, and/or venue in their sole discretion; and, under such circumstances, RU, and/or venue shall NOT have any liability or obligation to the winner and/or winner’s guest of any kind.  Additional terms and conditions may apply to Shi Stadium and its surrounding events for which Sponsor or RU shall not be responsible or liable in any way for any cancellations, losses or damages.

Drawing.  Winners will be selected in a random drawing from among all eligible entries collected during the Entry Period, taking place on or about October 17, 2022 at 9:00 AM ET.  The drawing will be conducted by Sponsor, whose decisions and interpretations on all matters relating to the Sweepstakes and these Official Rules are final and binding in all respects.  Sponsor reserves the right to disqualify any entrant or winner and may refuse to award a prize to a person who is not eligible or has violated a rule, gained unfair advantage in the Sweepstakes, or obtained winner status using fraudulent means, to be determined in Sponsor’s sole discretion.  If there is a dispute about the identity of an entrant, prize will be awarded to the natural person associated with the account or provided by email.  If a winner is found to be ineligible or not in compliance with the Sweepstakes rules, such winner will be disqualified and an alternate winner will be awarded the prize in a separate random drawing at Sponsor’s sole discretion. Winner will be notified by phone and/or email associated with their Jackpocket account or Free Entry.  Inability of Sponsor to contact winner by telephone and/or email within twenty-four (24) hours after selection may result in disqualification of such winner and an alternate winner may be selected in a random drawing at Sponsor’s sole discretion.  Prize will be sent to each winner by email within twenty-four (24) hours after such winner has been notified and accepted the prize.  If a prize is returned as undeliverable, then such prize will be forfeited and another winner may be randomly drawn.  Each potential winner may be required to execute an Affidavit of Eligibility, a Liability Release, and (where legal) a Publicity Release; failure to comply when requested may result in disqualification and award of prize to an alternate winner. 

Odds.  The odds of winning will depend on the number of eligible participants, according to the eligibility requirements in the Sweepstakes.
