Ticket drawing - the rules.

Club Member
Many of our members are new. For the benefit of the new members and for those of you who may not remember, here's the story:

Allbuffs.com is the proud owner of two pairs of season tickets.
We give away two sets to each game to registered members.
Any registered member of allbuffs.com is eligible to win the tickets.
FC and I will draw twice for tickets, once in late July/early August, and once again in late September/early October.
We place golf balls with the name of the person entering into a big bucket and draw out names.
Members receive one golf ball.
Paying club members receive two golf balls
Those who contributed funds to the purchase of the tickets receive three golf balls.
You can enter for tickets to every game, but you can only win ONE pair of tickets to ONE game.
Winners will be notified after the drawing both via a posting in the tailgate thread and via PM.
You have one week to verify that you will, indeed use the tickets.
If you're unable to use the tickets, you can give them away as you see fit.
This probably won't be an issue this year, but the rule is that you don't have to be a CU fan to win tickets, but you can't be a fan of the opposing team that particular game. For instance, CSU fusker can't get tickets to the CSU game, but he can get tickets to any other game. There's a couple Cal fans who've shown up here lately. They're eligible to get tickets to any game other than the Cal game.
You must pick up the tickets at sackygate. You cannot show up to sackygate empty handed. You will be assigned something to bring. If you don't bring it, you get NOTHING. There ain't no such thing as a free lunch.

To enter the drawing, just respond in the affirmative in the drawing thread for the particular game you want tickets for.

One last rule - Junk never wins, ever. Chippy seems to win every year. That's just the way it works. No telling why.

Questions?
 
I think this is Junc's year. He's due.

(Help me get his hopes up, folks. :lol:)
 
Isn't Tini legit banned from winning anything ever?

There's a part of me that would like to see him win and put the tickets up on Stubhub. The fireworks would easily beat anything I'll see on the 4th. :smile2:

I'd like to see him try. The tickets have to be picked up at the tailgate. It's kind of hard to put tickets on stubhub from the tailgate. Now, he could go and scalp them. Remember, though, that there are TWO pairs of tickets. There will be other allbuffers sitting right next to you. If you pick up the tickets and scalp them, we'll all know about it.
 
One other rule. If giving you free tickets would be a booster violation with the NCAA, you are ineligible for the ticket drawing. Of course, if you're a player/recruit parent or something then the coaches should be able to get you into the game anyway.

I'm not sure that's correct. We're not giving the tickets away in an attempt to lure anybody to come to CU. We're just having a drawing for them. I can't see how that would be an NCAA violation. If the parent, player, friend is a registered member of allbuffs, he/she is eligible to enter the drawing. It's a blind drawing, so there's no favoritism shown.

Kind of like how Nike just happened to have a nearly one of a kind pair of Air Jordans to give away in a blind drawing?
 
Bump -

We'll probably be doing the drawing for the first set of tickets in about two weeks.
