DENVER For the first time every Scratch game offered by the Colorado Lottery is eligible for entry into a secondchance drawing online. The Lottery offers secondchance drawings for 25 to 30 select Scratch games annually. But starting this week Scratch games that dont feature their own secondchance drawings will be eligible for entry into an online secondchance drawing for a 2010 Ford Fusion valued at $35000.
This is really unprecedented for us said Colorado Lottery Acting Director Tom Kitts. Weve made all of our Scratch games eligible for secondchance drawings at the Colorado State Fair. But this is the first time were allowing players of all of our Scratch games to conveniently enter their nonwinning tickets online for a second shot at winning.
The last day to enter the hybrid car drawing is June 30 2010. The drawing will be held July 1 2010. To find out which games qualify for which drawings and entry instructions click here https//www.coloradolottery.com/index.cfm/ID/55/SecondChanceDrawings/
