Winning MIAMI HEAT Scratch-Off tickets cannot be used for entry in the Second Chance Drawings. The odds of winning are dependent upon the number of entries received.

(5) Players may enter as many times as they wish during the contest period. However, each valid ticket number may only be used one time, for one entry in the Miami Heat Fan Experience Second Chance Promotion Drawings. Tickets should not be mailed to the Lottery unless players are contacted by the Florida Lottery and requested to do so. Non-winning tickets received in the mail by the Florida Lottery will not be entered in the drawing and will not be returned.

(6) The requisite number of entries will be drawn to award prizes in the order shown above. An additional ten (10) entries will be drawn in each drawing to serve as alternates, in the order drawn, for unclaimed prizes other than fan packs.

(7) The prizewinners in each second chance drawing will be posted on flalottery.com on the day of the draw. The Florida Lottery will attempt to notify the prize winners, other than winners of fan packs, by telephone, U.S. mail or e-mail using the contact information provided in the winner’s registration data no later than one (1) week after the winners are drawn. If the Florida Lottery is unable to contact a winner within three (3) weeks of the date of the drawing, the winner will forfeit his or her right to claim the prize and the Florida Lottery will award the prize to an alternate winner as described above. If the Florida Lottery is unable to contact the alternate winner within three (3) weeks of the date of award of the prize, the alternate winner will forfeit his or her right to claim the prize and the Florida Lottery will award the prize to a second alternate winner. As long as a prize remains available, this process will continue until an alternate is contacted or the Florida Lottery has exhausted the list of available alternates. If the Lottery is unable to contact an alternate, the prize will not be awarded.

(8) Miami Heat fan packs for two (2) will be shipped to the winner’s address within approximately forty five (45) days after the drawing, with the exception of the replica Miami Heat jerseys, for which shipment may take up to one hundred twenty (120) days.

The Miami Heat shall coordinate with each winner a mutually agreeable date on which the winner may use the prize package. If an acceptable date during the 2010-2011 season cannot be arranged, a date during a future season shall be selected. If a winner of tickets to the April 10, 2011 game advises the Lottery in advance that he or she is unable to attend the game, the winner may designate a proxy to attend the game and participate in the promotion; in such event, the winner shall receive any prize won by the proxy and all prizes won by the proxy in the promotion will be taxable to the winner.
