Entry deadline nears for Lucke-Rewards drawings

February 27, 2013 Posted by NC Lottery at 8:58 AM

Cash or dash? Those are the choices for February’s monthly Lucke-Rewards drawings. But hurry – if you want a chance to win $25,000 or an amazing VIP experience at the Charlotte Motor Speedway – you must enter by 11:59 p.m. on Feb. 28.

Two winners selected at random in the NCEL 200 Race Package Drawing will get a VIP experience that makes them a part of the action. One will become the Grand Marshal of the NCEL 200 Camping World Truck Series race, and deliver the most famous words in racing: “Drivers, start your engines!” As the Honorary Starter, the other grand prize winner will drop the green flag to get the race underway.

The VIP experience includes pit passes, a behind-the-scenes tour and a bird’s eye view of the race from a suite high above the speedway. The winners will also receive VISA gift cards, hotel accommodations on the night of the NCEL 200 and a ticket package to the NCEL 200 Camping World Truck Series race, NASCAR Sprint Cup Series All-Star race, NASCAR Nationwide Series History 300 race and the Sprint Cup Series Coca Cola 600 race.

Ten more winners will be randomly selected for the NASCAR race ticket package at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Each will receive a pair of tickets to the NCEL 200 Camping World Truck Series race, NASCAR Sprint Cup Series All-Star race, NASCAR Nationwide Series History 300 race and the Sprint Cup Series Coca Cola 600 race.

The prize that will be awarded in the $25,000 Sweet Rewards Drawing speaks for itself!

These drawings are scheduled for March 6. Lucke-Zone members can enter one or both drawings through the Lucke-Rewards program. A single entry into either drawing takes 50 reward points. For a chance to win, remember to get those entries in before midnight on Feb. 28.

@ PLAYER (PG) - When you enter a draw game ticket here in the Lucke-Zone for Lucke-Reward points, the point value will vary between 1 and 5 times the ticket price. So your $5 ticket will always be worth between 5 and 25 reward points, etc. Hope that helps!

3/04/2013 12:20 - NC Lottery

@ BAMA - One thing to remember is that the entry codes on draw tickets for Lucke Rewards points never use the letter "O" - they always use the number "0" ... try to see if that helps. If not, please give our player customer service number a call: 877-962-7529

Player-"Luck" has zip codes,have you not noticed?

3/02/2013 02:56 - barbara j.

I have Lucke-Rewards that won't go what do I need to do with those numbers?

3/02/2013 12:32 - Janice L.

When I register Lucke-Rewards each night I get a different amount added 5 another 10 another 25 and it's the same type tickets 5 cash 5 all on one ticket so why different earnings????

3/02/2013 11:56 - jill j.

I want to see someone win from Spruce Pine NC. Like me!

3/02/2013 10:37 - Timothy J.

WONDER HOW MANY FOLKS ARE IN THE LUCKE-ZONE COMMUNITY?

3/02/2013 02:35 - John M.

in response to the Barb's (the first) question. I you opt to take payments in installments and you pass the money would go to whomever signed the ticket which can be multiple people. However they have just as much right to the initial payout...So make sure it is someone you trust and will wait upon your death to collect

@ MOWALLJR - Our best guess is that a computer "auto-correction" made that person's comment change from "instant scratch offs" to "instant scratch house" ... guess computers aren't familiar enough with expressions lottery players use! ;-) As for game coupons, we imagine they're referring to a promotion done in another state.

3/01/2013 02:31 - NC Lottery

@ SHOWBOAT - The letter "O" is not used on the draw ticket entry codes. Anytime you see it, it is the number "0" ... hope that helps :-)

3/01/2013 02:28 - NC Lottery

@ BADDCATT326 - Since the last time we talked about it? None of $100,000+; not sure about other wins.

3/01/2013 02:27 - NC Lottery

@ TONY - Thanks for asking this question, because the information in our reply is something that we want all lottery players to know. There is no way to guarantee that you'll win a game of chance. Someone could go out today and buy $10 million worth of Powerball tickets, and still not buy the one that matches all six numbers. So - please only play lottery games for fun, and if you're not having fun, please remember there are more important things than the lottery to think about. Just FYI, we have had many lucky lottery winners from Durham: http://bit.ly/YPtYGw

Hi Synamon - Folks in the far corner of western North Carolina have the same chance of winning a prize as anybody else.. its just that 90+% of North Carolinians live and play the lottery east of you! We had a $1 million winner out in your direction not long ago: http://bit.ly/XLA47w

2/28/2013 11:55 - Lorene H.

Don't feel alone Gastonia. I live in the very western corner of North Carolina and there has been no winners that I know of here. All the big winners are anywhere from Charlotte to the coast. Would love 1 time someone from this forgotten corner of the world to win something.

2/28/2013 11:17 - Tony B.

I have all together over 1000 tickets in a shoe box that have been enter in several lucky zone second chance winnings!!! I would like to know, what dose it takes to win!! I buy faithfully tickets daily to have won something!! What is the real deal!!!I spend over $200 a week in tickets, starting with $20-$1....we are at the give up mode.. we are now chasing the dream in every city. Its bad you have to go to other cities to buy tickets. Because the hits are not in Durham!!!How many points do you have to have to WIN!!!!!!!

2/28/2013 08:48 - henry b.

how do you tell driffrent from a o and 0 on these tickets,when bought appear the same.

2/28/2013 08:39 - Monte W.

on the ticket entry page for the codes it clearly states right under the blocks for the code, "The letter "O" is not used." That means only the number zero is to be used. What are "game coupons" and "scratch house"??

2/28/2013 08:31 - NC Lottery

These drawings are scheduled for March 6; the winners will be notified after the drawing, and an announcement of who won will be made as soon as the notification and claims process is complete. Good luck to everyone!

@ HUBBY - We aren't aware of a difference that you should be experiencing based on the device that you use or how close to the drawing deadline we are. Thanks for bringing this up, though, we will forward it along

2/28/2013 12:08 - nyesha h.

2/28/2013 11:23 - Lenora T.

I seem to be having a problem putting in my last chance drawings for today which is the 28th on my iPad but I was able to put in all my second chance tickets which seems strange. I always use my iPad but notice just before a drawing I have problems getting my points in. What difference is an iPad from a regular computer when entering lottery points close to drawing time?

2/28/2013 09:46 - NC Lottery

@ BARB - Exactly right :-)

2/28/2013 09:43 - NC Lottery

@ PLAYER (PL) - Just click on the links within the blog entry, it will take you to the promotion pages for each one where you can enter :-)

2/28/2013 09:39 - NC Lottery

@NOEL - Thank you for your feedback about the entry system, and sorry to hear about any problems that you are having. One problem we may be able to solve for you is that the letter "O" is not used in any entry codes, just the number "0" ... so, if you go to re-enter your tickets, and that works, hopefully that will help some people. For everyone who is still having issues with ticket entry, please give our tech support line for assistance: 800-201-0108

2/28/2013 09:28 - NC Lottery

@ MIMI45 - We have noticed that you leave a similar comment to this on almost every blog, and many times we have replied to you saying that folks in Gastonia have the same chance to win as anybody else, it's all a matter of luck.

2/28/2013 09:27 - NC Lottery

@ EZMONEY - Sure, you can enter as many drawings as you want! You just have to have enough reward points to enter. It's up to you if you want to enter one drawing one time, one drawing more than once, or multiple drawings one time each, or multiple times each! :-)

2/28/2013 09:23 - NC Lottery

@ MSPECAN4 - A future promotion like that is a possibility! :-)

2/28/2013 08:34 - Anthony W.

Need it!!!

2/28/2013 08:20 - Shawn V.

It is very difficult to enter the PowerBall, Cash 5, etc. tickets onto this web site, because you CANNOT tell the difference between a ZERO or the Letter 'O', as I tried 5 times to enter one ticket and am now LOCKED OUT!! Ridiculous!!!

2/28/2013 07:51 - Richard V.

good luck

2/28/2013 07:35 - MR. Kenneth R.
