“Tail Gator” Could Be Your Ticket to the Game!

We’re calling this month’s Twitter contest is a real game changer! We’re celebrating football season by giving our Twitter contest participants an opportunity to score big with our newest $1 instant-scratch game – “Tail Gator” and our Tail Gator promotion. Three lucky winners in our September Twitter contest will each receive $20 in Tail Gator scratch tickets.

The scratch game offers 16 top prizes of $2,000 and thousands of other prizes between $1 and $100. Plus, if you don’t win a prize instantly, you can Play it Again® and enter the Tail Gator promotion with nonwinning Tail Gator scratch tickets at ialottery.com for a chance to win one of nine unique college football game experience packages later this fall at Iowa State University, The University of Iowa or The University of Northern Iowa.

Our Twitter contest begins at 2 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 17, and you’ll have 15 minutes to enter. Just follow us on Twitter – it’s free to create an account if you don’t already have one. Then give us the correct answer to our super-easy contest question and you’ll be entered for a chance to win one of the three ticket prize packs.

At 2 p.m. next Tuesday, we’ll pose our question on Twitter. Reply with your answer within the 15-minute time limit and you’ll be entered in the contest! No late entries will be accepted. (Be sure to reply to @ialottery on Twitter. Don’t direct message us, as direct messages aren’t eligible for entry.)

We’ll randomly select the three winners in our contest, then blog about the results and link to that blog entry on Twitter and Facebook.

If you win, you’ll need to contact us with your name, date of birth and mailing address so we can send out your tickets. Winners will have until 4 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 24, to contact us with their information.
