Seahawks Winning Play Scratch
Washington’s Lottery launched Seahawks Winning Play Scratch today. It’s the first licensed professional football Scratch ticket available in the country.
Washington’s Lottery partnered with the Seattle Seahawks to offer football fans the opportunity to win big bucks while cheering on their hometown team. The ticket, which features a top prize of $50,000, also features a football fans’ dream trip (details below) in a second chance drawing. The ticket goes on sale today at Lottery retail locations statewide and will be sold at Qwest Field during Seahawks home games. The partnership resulted after a vote from the National Football League allowing teams and lottery groups to align.
The second-chance drawing details are for one lucky player who will win the following:
- Two tickets to the Pro Bowl game on Sunday, January 31, 2010
- Two tickets to the Super Bowl on Sunday, February 7, 2010
- Round-trip coach airfare for two from Seattle to Miami
- One double occupancy hotel room for nine nights (I hope they’re either unemployed or employed with a lot of vacation time)
The approximate value of the package is $12,000. Entry deadline is Tuesday, January 12, 2010. And the drawing is on Tuesday, January 19, 2010.
The Cincinnati Bengals and Cleveland Browns both gained approval for lottery deals today. They join the Patriots, Redskins, Texans, Ravens and Saints (and Seahawks, of course) so far.
