The prizes have no cash value and are nontransferable. In the unlikely event the Lottery is unable to fulfill a stated prize due to circumstances beyond its control, a prize(s) of equal or greater value will be substituted at the Lottery’s sole discretion.
Winner Selection and Notification: 

Lottery staff will randomly select a player number from the entire 2025-2026 Pelicans official roster at the time of the drawing on Monday, March 16. Ten (10) entrants who submitted the number selected as their “favorite #” will be randomly selected as winners. In the event that there are not 10 valid entries who submitted the number selected, the Lottery will continue randomly selecting other player numbers from the roster and randomly drawing from the field of matching entries until all 10 prizes have been awarded.   

The 10 apparent winners will be notified via email using the email address they provided on the website form while entering by 5 p.m. on Monday, March 16. Winners have until the next business day to verify their eligibility status, or their prize will be forfeited; the Lottery may, at its discretion, assign an alternate winner in those cases.
