Drawing Deadlines Fast Approaching

December 26, 2019 Posted by NC Lottery at 1:00 PM

If you’re making your holiday list and checking it twice, don’t forget to check off, “Enter Lucke-Rewards Drawings.”

You only have a few days left to enter our Reindeer Riches monthly Lucke-Rewards drawing. If you’re lucky, you could be one of 25 players to win $5,000.

Get ready to see blue in the new year. We’re giving away a Duke Basketball rivalry game experience. One winner will get two game tickets to the Duke Vs. Carolina basketball game on Saturday, March 7 at Cameron Indoor stadium. In addition to game tickets, the winner will receive a parking pass and access for two to the pre-game hospitality at the Washington Duke Inn, which includes a pre-game meal. The winner will also receive a Coach K autographed basketball and a $500 Visa gift card.

You have until Dec. 31 to enter both of these drawings. We’ll choose the winners on January 8.

So good luck and happy holidays!

How many total entries are currently in the Mardi Gras Mayhem drawing? As of Jan 2020 how many Lucke Rewards members are there? When we redeem points in a drawing, why can’t we see the total entries for that drawing? NC Lottery
Hi Latoya, Our latest numbers show that the Mardi Gras Mayhem drawing as 2,807,660 entries. Currently, our website doesn't have the capability to display live updates of the entry totals since they are changing so often. We have over 220,000 active Lucke-Rewards members.

where do we see drawing results please !? I need some cash , almost on the street . NC Lottery
Hi Robert, the Reindeer Riches winners were notified on 1/11/20. As the winners respond to us and complete the claim process, we'll update the website with their info. Winners have up to 30 days to respond and claim. Please remember games of chance, such as the lottery, are not a strategy to achieve a financial goal. It takes luck to be one of the lucky ones who wins. We encourage people to play responsibly, only with money they can afford to spend on entertainment.

Have All Reindeer Riches winners been notified? Cannot see any listed on the website! Thank you NC Lottery
Hey there, Typically our team notifies the winners for our Lucke-Rewards drawings within 48 hours of the draw day. That means they should have all bee notified by the end of the day yesterday. As the winners respond to us and complete the claim process, we will update the website with their info. Winners have up to 30 days to respond and claim. Hope this helps!

i cant believe this new crummy web site very discouraging..

1/03/2020 12:18 - Alexandre D.

I have a lot of entries on Reinder Riches but cannot see them unless i go into the history. It's confusing because the game is close and disappeared from view or even past games... NC Lottery
Hey Alexandre, Don't worry, your entries are all still there! We're just having a little difficulty getting that drawing to display on the past drawings page right now. We're working to get that fixed ASAP.

Why can I not enter my second chance ticketsNC Lottery
Hi there Starvenus, We want to help, but we need a little more info. What type of error are you receiving when you try to enter your second-chance tickets? Please note that there is a daily entry limit of 75 tickets.

i have a question. on the 10.00 christmas ticket that says 50 or 100. ok it says on the back that there is 1 winner out of every 10. well thats a lie. because my dad bought 10 and won nothing so i bought 4 more right behind him . and u guessed it nothing. 14 ... 10.00 tickets and not 1.00 what the heck. NC Lottery
Hi Donna, winning and non-winning tickets are distributed at random throughout the entire printing run of the game, not just within packs. Odds of 1 in 10 do not guarantee a win if you buy 10 tickets in a row. It's entirely possible for there to be many non-winning tickets (or winning tickets) in a row. It simply means that 10% of all of the tickets printed contain a prize. We wish you good luck.

May everyone have a chance an good luck to the winning one you are a lucky person I never win God bless..

Hey LZ! A couple of points. One player complained about other states winning here. She said we can't win there? That's not really true, correct? I know people go to South Carolina and win repeatedly, probably Virginia too but especially SC. So, IF I go to another state and play while there, I CAN win, right? Regardless of the state? I found a $2 winner from Virginia. I can claim it, correct? It was obviously bought there. Another question is the NCEL phone number. I got a LOT of SPAM calls, very often appearing to be local area codes, even 919, so an exact number would be great.NC Lottery
Hi Tim, you're correct about being able to win in any state. The main point is that NC lottery games can only purchased in North Carolina. We have several team members that reach out to winners and they all have their own phone number. So we can't say precisely what number will call you, however they will leave a message.

Happy Holidays!!! And (GOOD LUCK TO ALL)

12/28/2019 10:18 - sheleen j.

How will we know it's really ncel calling? What is the number you call from? Do you leave a message or do you go to next because we don't answer?NC Lottery
Hi Sheleen, the Lottery will call from a (919) area code number and will leave a message. In addition to calling we also send an email and a certified letter.
