Drawing deadlines approaching fast

January 26, 2018 Posted by NC Lottery at 10:23 AM

The deadline is fast approaching for several of our second-chance promotions, and we don't want you to miss out on your chance to win.

Basketball fans have until Sunday, Jan. 28 to enter to win two courtside seats to see the Charlotte Hornets in action. They take on the Indiana Pacers Sunday, April 8. In addition to courtside seats, the winner will receive a $200 Visa gift card, hotel accommodations for the night of the game, access for two to the exclusive Crown Club and one autographed jersey.

You have a chance to multiply your excitement by entering the final X The Cash Second-Chance drawing. We’ll choose one grand prize winner of $50,000. Two players will win $10,000, five players will win $5,000, and 10 players will win $500.

And don’t forget to enter our New Year Cheer monthly drawing. We’ll pick one winner of $18,000. You have until Wednesday, Jan. 31 to enter both drawings. We’ll choose the winners on Feb. 7.

And finally, there’s only one Monday left to take part in our More Money Mondays Pick 4 promotion. You have a chance to win 40% more prize money when you play on Jan. 29.

Good luck!

Do you leave voicemails for winners that you call for these drawings, so they will not miss their chance to actually win? NC Lottery
Sure. The lottery sends an email to the winners. If no response, the lottery calls and leaves a voice mail. If no response, the lottery sends a certified letter to the address.

Please join the PowerCruise 2 contest for the state of NC. We had a blast and would love to have a chance to go on the next one. I have heard there are more prizes and a bigger grand prize. Come on NC Lotery treat us good! NC Lottery
Glad you had a blast. We're not on PowerCruise 2. But we look forward to seeing how it goes. Perhaps we can sail on PowerCruise 3. We're always looking for ways to give folks a chance to have a little fun. So stayed tuned for some other opportunities.

Hello,I play just about every other day, and I'm hoping this give me a chance to win. I hear great stories about everyone that have won and I'm hoping one day I can be that lucky. NC Lottery
Good luck, Christine! You bring up a good point, so we wanted to share our favorite advice to give players that are new to the lottery or Lucke-Rewards: Always remember to keep it fun. If it doesn't feel quite right and it's just simply not fun anymore, take a break!

I cant enter my ticket to use my points why???? NC Lottery
Are you referring to issues with entering tickets to earn points so you can enter drawings? If so, the App allows you to scan the bar code on your ticket directly to the Lucke-Rewards ticket entry page using your mobile device's camera. No manual entry is needed. For scratch off tickets, scan the barcode located under the scratch off coating. For draw game tickets scan the barcode located under the Lucke-Rewards 25 digit code. You can still manually enter tickets if you prefer. If you are still having issues, let us know.

Thank you for the reminders. I am definitely going to enter my tickets and points. I really enjoyed your Lucke Rewards game for $2. It is about to end. Can you, please, bring it back? This is excellent and inexpensive way to collect Lucke Rewards points and maybe win some money in the process. NC Lottery
Hi there, Tatiana. Thank you for sharing with us! We are glad you like the Lucke Rewards games. The people who make those decisions read this blog. :)

It's not easier to win the lottery in one place over the other. With that being said, there have been plenty of winners from Thomasville. Check out this story, "Car troubles lead Davidson County man to $400,000 lottery prize" here: http://ow.ly/Sbix30i2asD

I'm not really sure how to play. NC Lottery
Hi Gary- You play by going to the "collect" button on your "User Dashboard" and entering your tickets. Once you enter a ticket you'll receive points. You can then use those points enter Lucke-Reward drawings. You do that by going to the "Enter" icon. If a ticket you enter qualifies for a second-chance drawing, you'll automatically be entered.
