5. How to Enter: 

You will need an Account to participate. There is no payment or other consideration required to open an Account. Sponsor will use the Account email address and other information for eligibility, notification and/or fulfillment purposes, if you are a winner, so be sure such information is accurate and up to date. During the Promotion Period, visit Sprite.com/Bulls, and follow the links and instructions to log into or create an Account.  You automatically will receive 1 entry into the Sweepstakes.  

Limit: 1 Sweepstakes entry per person per day during the Promotion Period.  Multiple entrants are not permitted to share the same email address.  Any attempt by any entrant to obtain more than 1 entry per day by using multiple/different email addresses, identities, registrations or logins, or any other methods will void that entrant’s entries and that entrant may be disqualified from the Sweepstakes.  Any use of robotic, repetitive, automatic, programmed, or similar entry methods or agents (including, but not limited to, sweepstakes entry services) will void all entries by that entrant.  In the event of a dispute as to any online entry, the authorized account holder of the email address used to enter will be deemed to be the entrant.  The "authorized account holder" is the natural person assigned an email address by an Internet access provider, online service provider or other organization responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted address.  Potential winners may be required to show proof of being the authorized account holders.

6. Drawings: Administrator is an independent judging organization whose decisions as to the selection of the potential winners are final and binding.  On or about February 16, 2023, Administrator will select the names of the potential winners in a random drawing of all eligible entries received during the Promotion Period.  The potential winners will be notified by email or phone.  The odds of winning a prize depend on the number of eligible entries received during the Promotion Period.

7. Requirements of Potential Winners: Potential winners must continue to comply with the Official Rules.  Winning is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements.  The potential Grand Prize winner will be required to sign and return to Administrator, within 5 days of the date notice or attempted notice is sent, a Declaration of Compliance, Liability & Publicity Release (except where prohibited) in order to claim his/her prize and to fulfill any such other requirements as determined by Administrator.  Each potential First and Second Prize winner will be required to provide the Administrator a mailing address (no P.O. Boxes) for prize fulfillment purposes within 5 days of the date notice or attempted notice is sent, in order to claim his/her prize and to fulfill any such other requirements as determined by Administrator.  If a potential prize winner fails to provide a Declaration of Compliance, Liability & Publicity Release or any other requested information (as applicable), he/she may be disqualified and forfeit the prize. In the event that a potential winner cannot be contacted, forfeits the prize or is disqualified for any reason, if time permits, Administrator will select an alternate potential winner in a random drawing from among all remaining eligible entries, up to 3 alternates.  If the alternate potential winners are disqualified, the applicable prize will not be awarded.  Prizes will be fulfilled approximately 8 to 10 weeks after the conclusion of the Sweepstakes.
