    The voucher serial number is located on the front of the voucher below the instructions for entry. Vouchers CANNOT be entered in the drawing on the day of purchase. Players entering a voucher on the day of purchase will be directed to return at a later date to enter their voucher in the drawing. POWERBALL tickets cannot be used for entry in the drawing. The odds of winning are dependent upon the number of entries received.

    Retain your voucher(s). THE VOUCHER MUST BE PRESENTED IN ORDER TO CLAIM A PRIZE IN THE ULTIMATE CANES EXPERIENCE SECOND CHANCE DRAWING.

    DO NOT MAIL YOUR VOUCHER TO THE FLORIDA LOTTERY unless you are contacted by the Florida Lottery and requested to do so. Vouchers or tickets received in the mail by the Florida Lottery will not be entered in the drawing and will not be returned.

  4. The prizewinners in the Ultimate Canes Experience drawings will be posted on flalottery.com after the drawings. The Florida Lottery will attempt to notify prizewinners in the first five (5) drawings by telephone or e-mail no later than two (2) days after the winners are drawn. If the Florida Lottery is unable to contact a prizewinner within four (4) days of the date of the drawing, the winner will forfeit his or her right to claim the prize and the prize will not be awarded. The Florida Lottery will attempt to notify prizewinners in the Grand Prize drawing by telephone, certified mail or e-mail no later than one (1) week after the winners are drawn. If the Florida Lottery is unable to contact a winner in the November 30, 2009, Grand Prize Drawing within three (3) weeks of the date of the drawing, the winner will forfeit his or her right to claim the prize and the prize will not be awarded.

  5. All entries are subject to validation by the Florida Lottery and may be disqualified if eligibility requirements are not met. To claim an Ultimate Canes Experience drawing prize, a winner must submit for receipt by the Florida Lottery no later than five (5) days after being notified by the Lottery that he/she is a winner, the original valid voucher bearing the unique serial number selected in the drawing, a completed Winner Claim Form, a copy of acceptable identification and a completed Authorization to Release Address form. The Grand Prize winner in the November 30, 2009, Grand Prize Drawing will be required to submit a completed Release and Authorization form in lieu of the Authorization to Release Address form. Claim Forms, which include a list of acceptable identification, are located in the Downloads section at flalottery.com, under the heading "Miscellaneous." Claim Forms are also available at Florida Lottery district offices. The Release and Authorization form and the Authorization to Release Address form are available on the Ultimate Canes Experience Second Chance Drawing page on the Lottery's Web site. Winners who cannot produce a valid entry voucher and/or do not submit the required documents to the Lottery as set forth above will forfeit their right to claim the prize. Therefore, it is imperative that players retain all vouchers entered in the drawing.

    In the event a prize is not claimed in time for the winner to use the game tickets for the scheduled game, reasonable efforts will be made by the University of Miami to provide tickets for the next available home game in which the Miami Hurricanes play. Fulfillment of all prizes other than the Scratch-Off tickets will be handled by the University of Miami staff.

    If a voucher bearing the serial number selected in the drawing is presented to the Lottery by a person other than the person who entered the number in the drawing, an investigation will be conducted by the Lottery to determine the person entitled to the prize.

  6. All federal, state and/or local taxes or other fees on the Ultimate Canes Experience prizes will be the responsibility of the winner. Federal income taxes are required to be withheld from a prize awarded to a nonresident alien claimant at the rate of thirty percent (30%) pursuant to applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Because there is no cash from which to withhold taxes, a nonresident alien claimant who is selected as a winner will be required to pay the withholding tax or forfeit the prize. The reporting and subsequent payment of any additional federal, state and/or local taxes shall be the responsibility of the nonresident alien winner.

  7. No cash option is available in lieu of the prizes.

  8. The right to claim a prize cannot be assigned to another person or entity.

  9. All prizes are subject to the provisions of Chapter 24, Florida Statutes, and rules promulgated thereunder, including the official Ultimate Canes Experience Drawing rule. Prizes will be paid in accordance with the rules of the Florida Lottery governing payment of prizes. Copies of the current prize payment rule and the Ultimate Canes Experience Drawing rule can be obtained from the Florida Lottery, Office of the General Counsel, 250 Marriott Drive, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-4011.

  10. Players must be at least 18 years of age. Persons prohibited by Section 24.116, Florida Statutes, from purchasing a Florida Lottery ticket are not eligible to play.

  11. A player entering the Ultimate Canes Experience drawings is deemed to have granted permission for the Florida Lottery to photograph and/or videotape and record the prizewinner with or without prior notification and to use the name, photograph, videotape, and/or recording of the prizewinner for advertising or publicity purposes without additional compensation.
