All prizes will be drawn during show hours. A 10-minute warning will be given before the drawing. Winners must be present at the time of the drawing to claim their prize. If the selected winner is not present, entries will be redrawn until the prize is awarded to an attendee present during the drawing.

DRAWING AND ODDS OF WINNING. Winners will be chosen randomly from all eligible entries received before the drawing time. The drawing will be conducted by a designated Sweepstakes Administrator, whose decisions are final and binding in all matters related to the Sweepstakes.
