Louisiana Lottery Announces Winners from Second SAINTS GOLD Scratch-off Second-Chance Drawing and Deadline for Third Drawing

Amy E. Quick of Houma had her nonwinning SAINTS GOLD scratch-off selected from more than 8,000 entries in the Louisiana Lottery’s second second-chance drawing held Oct. 19 to win a Saints Tunnel Team Prize Package, including four Plaza Club Sideline tickets, four pregame field passes to be on the field as the Saints come marching in ahead of the Nov. 13 game against Denver, one night hotel accommodation (two rooms), a parking pass and $500 spending cash.

“I’m very excited to be able to be on the field with the team,” said Quick. “My brother and I are lifelong fans, so this will definitely be a special treat for us.”

In addition to Quick, nine winners were drawn to receive official Saints autographed merchandise. Mary Joseph of Cecilia, William M. Logan Jr. of New Orleans and Diane Quirk of Port Allen won an autographed jersey. Dawn M. Green of Lafayette, Tiffany Hollis of Calhoun and Scott Guillotte of Fort Polk won an autographed helmet. Gene Jones of Hammond, Robin Long of Thibodaux and Brenda Bordelon of Opelousas won an autographed football.

Celebrating the New Orleans Saints 50^th season, the Louisiana Lottery launched $5 SAINTS GOLD — its eighth consecutive Saints-branded scratch-off game on Aug. 8. SAINTS GOLD features three anniversary-themed scenes emblazoned in shiny gold metallic ink. Players have the chance to win cash prizes, including one of four top prizes of $100,000, plus the opportunity to enter nonwinning tickets into a series of second-chance drawings to win unique game-day prize experiences or official autographed Saints merchandise.

The next second-chance drawing deadline is Nov. 14. Entries received by this date will give participants a chance to win the 2016 Deluxe Prize Package, including a set of four Plaza Club Sideline tickets and limousine transportation to and from the Dec. 4 game against Detroit, plus four pregame field passes, four authentic Saints jerseys, one night hotel accommodation (two rooms) and $500 spending cash.

To enter the second-chance drawings, players should complete the information on the back of nonwinning $5 SAINTS GOLD scratch-off tickets and mail one ticket per envelope (no larger than 4.5" by 9.5") to the drawing address printed on the back of the ticket. Players can enter as many times as they wish, but each entry should be mailed in a separate envelope.

Lottery ticket purchasers and second-chance drawing entrants must be at least 21 years of age. If you or someone you know has a gambling problem, help is available by calling 1-877-770-7867.
