HOW TO ENTER:

• To enter the Giveaway, you must follow the link to the entry landing page from one of the Ohio Lottery’s social posts. • Participants must sign in to their MyLotto Rewards® account or register for a MyLotto Rewards® account to play the animated Rock, Paper, Scissors game on the landing page and be entered to win. • Regardless of game result, all participants will be entered for a chance to win. • Participants can play the animated game as many times as they wish but will only be able to enter the Giveaway once. • Entries will be accepted through the landing page entry process, not on the social post itself.

The Administrator will manage the entries, conduct the drawing and distribute the prizes.

DETERMINATION AND NOTIFICATION OF WINNER:

During the promotional period, five (5) winners will be selected at random from all entries received.

The potential winners will be contacted by an Administrator representative by email to coordinate prize acceptance/fulfillment. The potential winners will be required to sign an affidavit of eligibility/liability release, federal and state tax release, and, where legal, a publicity release. The potential winners will have 24 hours to respond upon the notification of their win. Once contact information is received, the potential winner will have five (5) days to return the completed paperwork. A potential winner’s noncompliance with these deadlines or other aspects of these Official Rules, or the Sponsor’s inability either to contact a potential winner or to deliver the prize or prize notification to a potential winner within a reasonable time period, will result in such potential winner being disqualified. At Sponsor’s and Administrator’s sole discretion, each prize may be awarded to one (1) other potential alternate winner or may be left unawarded. Potential alternate winner will be subject to the same rules as original selection. Allow at least four (4) weeks for delivery of prizes following completion of winner verification process.

SPONSOR’S DECISIONS FINAL AND BINDING:

The results of the Giveaway, all decisions by the Sponsor, its agents or judges related to whether an entry complies with the Official Rules, and the interpretation by Sponsor or its agents of these Official Rules, are final and binding on all entrants and other participants as to all aspects of this Giveaway.

ODDS:
