The following rules establish the requirements for participating in O’ Christmas Spree live events:

- If an O’ Christmas Spree scratch ticket was purchased or claimed by more than one individual (a “Group”), the members of the Group shall select a single representative to participate in the O’ Christmas Spree event (a “Designee”). Once selected, the Designee may not be changed.
- Neither Prize Winner, Proxy, nor Designee will be permitted to remain anonymous, and will be required to sign an appearance release and waiver of anonymity. Refusal to sign the release will result in disqualification from any prizes.
- The Lottery may use, without limitation, an entrant’s hometown, name, likeness, and/or voice in any promotion, research, marketing, publication, or other advertising media including, but not limited to, the Idaho Lottery website and social media platforms, without notice, compensation, or additional release.

- O’ Christmas Spree Prize Winners must complete the Lottery claim form, provide all information necessary to process the claim, and provide contact information to schedule their participation in the O’ Christmas Spree event.
- Scratch tickets expire 180 days after the game ends and prizes must be claimed prior to that date. Lottery Headquarters in Boise, Idaho, must receive the completed claim form with all information requested by the last eligible claim date. The claim form can be found on the Lottery website. If the claim form and requested information is not received at the Lottery Headquarters, either in person or by mail, by the last date to claim, the Prize Winner will be disqualified from participating in the O’ Christmas Spree event.

All risk of loss remains with and is assumed by the Prize Winner.
- All prize amounts are subject to Federal and State taxes, and any applicable debt set-off or state withholdings, as required by law.
- In case a debt set-off is found, the Prize Winner will not participate in a live public event; instead choosing the value of their prize remotely in a private event.
- Once a ticket with a “SPREE” prize is validated at the Lottery headquarters, either in person or by mail, the Prize Winner will be contacted by the Lottery to arrange a time to attend an O’Christmas Spree live event.
- When possible, the Lottery will conduct O’Christmas Spree live events within two weeks of being contacted by the Prize Winner and verification of the winning ticket. This is to allow for time to make travel arrangements for the Lottery and to promote the event.

The Prize Winner will eliminate other boxes until there are two boxes remaining. The Prize Winner can then choose to open their original box, or the remaining box, to determine their prize.
