If the potential winner cannot be contacted or fails to execute and return the Affidavit/Release within five (5) business days, or if he/she is otherwise ineligible to receive the Prize, that potential winner will be deemed ineligible.

The Tailgate Party menu will be determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion. The winner must notify Sponsor or Administrator at the time the winner accepts the Prize if the winner or any guest has any special dietary restrictions. Notwithstanding such notification, Sponsor and Administrator will not have any liability of any kind if the winner or such guest(s) deem(s) the menu at the Tailgate Party inappropriate.
The Prize winner and all guests must conduct themselves at all times in an appropriate, well-behaved and courteous manner (including but not limited to attendance at the Game and Tailgate Party) and must follow all instructions of the suppliers of the Prize and the Administrator and Sponsor.
