A. INTRODUCTION

  1. Definitions: All capitalized terms used in these Official Rules shall have the meaning ascribed to them in Section E entitled “Definitions” at the end of these Official Rules.
  2. Eligibility: The Giveaway is open and offered only to legal United States residents with a valid government issued photo ID who are 18 years of age or older as of the first day of the Giveaway Period. Released Parties, as well as the immediate family (spouse, parents, siblings, children, step-parents, step-siblings, and step-children, regardless of where they live) and same household members of Released Parties (whether or not related), are not eligible to participate in the Giveaway.

B. RAFFLE RULES

  1. Raffle Period: The Raffle will be conducted during the Raffle Period. DO NOT ARRIVE BEFORE THE RAFFLE PERIOD. Arriving at Restaurant before the Raffle Period begins does not improve odds of winning. The Raffle Period may be modified at any time in the sole discretion of Sponsor.
  2. How to Enter: Arrive at Restaurant during the Raffle Period. Go to the registration desk and express interest in participating in the Giveaway. If, at the end of the Raffle Period there are 100 or less Individuals present, qualified and prepared to participate in the Giveaway, Sponsor will check ID, and each such Individual who completes and signs the Giveaway’s Release and Waiver will become a Participant in the Restaurant’s First 100 Giveaway. In such case, Sponsor shall award Numbers on a first come basis thereafter until all 100 Participants and 10 Alternates are selected. If possible, all Numbers will be awarded.
  3. Drawing: If, during the Raffle Period, more than 100 Individuals are present, qualified and prepared to participate in the Giveaway, Sponsor will check ID, and each eligible Individual will be given 1 Raffle Ticket and entered in the Raffle. No unofficial sign up sheets or lists will be honored. Eligible Individuals must be present during the entire Raffle Period and must be present to win. Sponsor will randomly draw 100 Tickets. Each Individual holding a matching drawn Ticket will win a Number and be provided with a General Release and Waiver. Each such Individual who completes and signs the Giveaway’s Release and Waiver will become a Participant in the Restaurant’s First 100 Giveaway. After 100 Tickets are drawn, Sponsor will randomly draw an additional 10 Tickets. Each Individual holding those matching drawn Tickets will win an “Alternate” Number and be provided with a General Release and Waiver. Each such Individual who completes and signs the Giveaway’s Release and Waiver will become an Alternate, numbered 1-10 based on the order drawn, in the Restaurant’s First 100 Giveaway. Limit 1 Ticket per Individual. Submission of multiple Ticket entries by or on behalf of the same Individual will result in ineligibility with respect to all entries submitted by or for an Individual. Tickets or Numbers may not be sold, traded, transferred, assigned or auctioned.
  4. Odds: Odds of being selected as a Participant or Alternate depend on the number of eligible entrants who enter the Giveaway.

C. CONTEST RULES

  1. Participant, Alternate and Guest Participation in Giveaway: Participants and Alternates must remain at the Sponsor-designated area at the Restaurant during the entire Giveaway Period to receive a Prize.

The foregoing items are the sole responsibility of the Participants, Alternates and Guests. Participants, Alternates and Guests must dress appropriately for changing weather conditions. Sponsor may conduct random checks of Participants, Alternates and Guests during the Giveaway Period to confirm adherence to these Official Rules. If a Participant, Alternate or Guest is found to have violated any Official Rules, including without limitation, leaving the designated area at the Restaurant, Participant or Alternate may, in Sponsor’s sole discretion, be disqualified from receiving a Prize. Participants, Alternates and Guests agree to abide by all safety and decorum conditions established by Sponsor and may be immediately removed from the Restaurant at the Sponsor’s sole discretion, for failure to comply with said conditions, or for any reason in Sponsor’s sole discretion.

  2. Prizes: Subject to complying with these Official Rules, all Participants and Alternates will win a Prize.

Each Participant and Alternate is solely responsible for any applicable taxes and unspecified expenses associated with a Prize. In the event that the Giveaway is cancelled or preempted for any reason, including weather, no rain checks, exchanges, substitution or cash replacement value of a Prize will be provided.

    Sponsor, in its sole discretion, may award de minimus value prizes during the Giveaway Period to Participants, Alternates or Guests. These prizes shall not affect the award of Grand Prizes, Alternate Grand Prize or Alternate Prizes.

    Sponsor reserves the right to, in its sole and absolute discretion, not award a Prize to any Participant or Alternate. Sponsor is not responsible for any Prizes that are lost, stolen or misplaced.

  3. How to Claim Prize: Subject to complying with these Official Rules, all Participants and Alternates will receive a Prize from Sponsor at or about the end of the Giveaway Period. Each Participant will receive 1 Grand Prize. If there is only one Alternate remaining, then said Alternate will receive the Alternate Grand Prize.
