TrueBlue Posted October 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 Just to be clear, we had an ineligible person win the 50/50 at the last game, which is why we have essentially carried the pot forward, and bumped it up a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Unknown Poster Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 Can you imagine winning and being told you are ineligible? Cant be age because thats weird just give the ticket to a parent. Plus, if they were a minor why were they sold a ticket. Must be something else. Bombers employee?

gbill2004 Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 Perfect timing for Wade, for something like this to happen to sell a few more tickets. Last game of the season when no one cares, and supposed to be crappy weather. Almost like he planned this... bustamente 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bearpants Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 Curious -- what makes someone ineligible? I'm also quite curious.... "congrats Jim O'Shea, are you by chance related to anyone on the Bombers?" Wonder if this will help get a few extra butts in the stands....

Noeller Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 Someone connected with the team or one of its advertisers.....it's the same thing we have with on-air promotions. You can't be affiliated with the station or one of the advertisers in any way, in order to qualify for the prize. The optics just aren't good. Likely an honest mistake.

Taynted_Fayth Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 Perfect timing for Wade, for something like this to happen to sell a few more tickets. Last game of the season when no one cares, and supposed to be crappy weather. Almost like he planned this...you know ive been to many bomber games and ive never seen a 50/50 be anywhere close to 100k. Its usually 40k give or take 1-2k. I'd assume if someone didnt win last week due to ineligability, it would start at the $40k they couldnt collect not at a cool $100k. And every game has shown the previous 50/50 winner. This does seem fishy**edit: nvm I see trueblue said they bumped it up a bit but bumping it up 60k is a lil more then a bit. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taynted_Fayth Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 Oh yeah I didnt think of that, but ppl will buy in bulk n like crazy, im going to guess $120k to winner after the smoke clears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has never been anywhere near as low as 40k all season... usually around 75-100k... I believe the Banjo bowl was around $140,000... EDIT: the winning amounts are actually on the Bombers website... http://www.bluebombers.com/50-50-winners June 19 - 36,695 (73,390 total) July 2 - 58,623 (117,246) July 10 - 46,658 (93,316) July 30 - 51,748 (103,496) Aug 14 - 46,830 (93,660) Aug 29 - 49,163 (98,326) Sept 12 - 78,213 (156,426) Sept 25 - 41,700 (83,400) Oct 3 - 41,108 (carried over to this saturday) Goalie and Bigblue204 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
