American Idol scratch game has two $25,000 prizes left!

 

Boise – American Idol, the smash hit reality show from Fox is already holding auditions for next year’s show.  And while the show’s producers are searching for their next big star, the Idaho Lottery is searching for their next two big winners!  

 

There are a limited number of Idaho Lottery American Idol Scratch^TM tickets still available in stores. The game has both top prizes of $25,000 remaining. One of the top prizes can be won instantly on the ticket itself and the second top prize is available only through a second chance draw. Players who want to enter the second chance draw can submit three non-winning American Idol tickets on the Idaho Lottery’s website at www.idaholottery.com. 

 

From August 4 through August 15, 2008, players watching KTRV Fox 12 This Morning will have a chance to win five Idaho Lottery American Idol Scratch Tickets by entering at KTRV’s website at www.fox12news.com.  

 

Fox 12 is the Treasure Valley’s exclusive home for Lottery players to watch Powerball drawings live on Wednesday and Saturday night’s at 8:59 p.m.

 

Last May, Jim Wells of Nampa won a trip to see last year’s American Idol finale “live” in Hollywood.  Two other lucky Idaho Lottery players will have their “American Idol” experience when they win $25,000 on the scratch game.
