Official Rules
 

Participants must be 18 years of age or older to purchase a ticket and do not have to be present to win. The winning ticket number will be displayed at www.reds.com/splitthepot within three (3) business days of the game date. The Split the Pot proceeds for each game will be divided three ways: 10% to offset expenses, 45% to the raffle winner, and 45% to benefit the Reds Community Fund. Split the Pot winners will have until the close of business Friday, Oct. 15, 2010, to redeem their winning ticket. After Oct. 15, any unclaimed Split the Pot prize money will be donated back to the Reds Community Fund.

 

Reds Community Fund staff members and Split the Pot volunteers are not eligible to participate in the Reds Community Fund Split the Pot.

 

All winners will be subject to the IRS rules and regulations regarding gambling winnings. For the 2010 season, winners of prizes over $600 will receive a W-2G form from the Reds Community Fund. Winners of prizes greater than $5,000 will have federal income tax of 25% withheld from their proceeds in accordance with IRS guidelines.

 

In order to claim a Split the Pot prize, potential winners should contact a Reds Community Fund  representative. The designated Reds Community Fund Split the Pot ticket is the only valid receipt for claiming a prize. The Reds Community Fund is not responsible for lost or stolen Split the Pot tickets. Upon completion of the corresponding paperwork, a check will be mailed to the winner within 30 days.
