3. HOW TO ENTER
3.1 Entry by Purchase (Automatic Entry):

Eligible participants may enter the Promotion by purchasing one or more tickets to the Palm Springs Food & Wine Festival through the official website (palmspringsfoodandwine.org) during any daily prize period specified in Section 2.1.
Entry Method:

Navigate to palmspringsfoodandwine.org Select and purchase festival ticket(s)
Complete purchase transaction between 12:00:00 PM and 2:00:00 PM PST on the applicable day Retain order confirmation
The timestamp of the completed order (as recorded by Sponsor’s ticketing system) serves as the entry timestamp. Each completed purchase transaction during a prize period constitutes one (1) entry for that day’s prize drawing only.
3.2 Alternative Method of Entry (AMOE) – No Purchase Necessary: MAIL-IN ENTRY ONLY (no electronic entries will be accepted)
To enter without purchase, eligible participants must send a handwritten request on a 3″x5″ card including:
Full name
Complete mailing address Phone number
Email address
Date of birth (to verify age 21+)
Which daily prize period you wish to enter (Days 1-7)
Your chosen entry time in HH:MM:SS format (example: “01:23:47 PM”) Must be between 12:00:00 PM and 2:00:00 PM
Include hour, minute, and second
Mail to:
Perfect Timing Giveaway – [Specify Day 1-7]
Hocker Productions, LLC [INSERT MAILING ADDRESS]
Palm Springs, CA [INSERT ZIP]

AMOE Deadlines: Requests must be postmarked by 11:59 PM PST on the day BEFORE the prize period you wish to enter.
Example: To enter Day 3 (Thursday, October 30), your postcard must be postmarked by Wednesday, October 29 at 11:59 PM PST.

Why This Works: Your chosen time on the postcard functions exactly like a purchase timestamp. You select your “entry time” just as purchasers select when to buy. Both entry methods compete equally based on proximity to the random time.
Limit one (1) AMOE entry per person per daily prize period. Illegible, incomplete, or bulk AMOE entries will be disqualified.
3.3 Entry Limits:

Purchase Entries: No limit on number of ticket purchase entries per person per day. Each separate purchase transaction = one entry.
AMOE Entries: One (1) AMOE entry per person per daily prize period.
Entries from prior days do not carry over. Each day is a separate promotion.
Automated or robotic entries, bulk entries, or entries made through third parties are prohibited and will be disqualified.

4. WINNER DETERMINATION
4.1 One (1) winner will be selected for each daily prize period.

4.2 Selection Method:

After the close of each daily prize period at 2:00:00 PM PST, Sponsor will:

1. Compile all eligible entries received during that day’s prize period
2. Generate a random timestamp between 12:00:00.000 PM and 2:00:00.000 PM PST using a certified random number generator
3. Determine which entry’s timestamp is closest (before or after) to the randomly generated timestamp
4. The entry with the timestamp closest to the random time (measured in milliseconds) will be deemed the potential winner
4.3 Tie-Breaking:

In the extremely rare event of an exact millisecond tie, the entry that was processed first by Sponsor’s system will be deemed the winner.
4.4 Verification:

All potential winners are subject to verification before any prize is awarded. Sponsor reserves the right to require proof of purchase, identification, and eligibility before awarding any prize.
4.5 Winner Notification:

Potential winners will be announced publicly on Sponsor’s social media channels at 9:00 AM PST the morning following the prize period close. Winners will also be notified via email at the address provided during ticket purchase (or AMOE entry) within twenty-four (24) hours of winner determination.

4.6 Disqualification and Alternate Winners:

If a potential winner:

Cannot be contacted
Fails to provide required documentation Is found to be ineligible
