I'll take 3 or whatever is left.

[ta0]

Just one raffle ticket left, number 49!   
Thanks everybody!!!

[ta0]

The Pick Three was 1-6-4 so the winning number for the Grand Prize is:

16 => Cyril is the winner!

I believe Cyril had also won a (second?) prize on a previous raffle. Lucky guy!

The second prize will be decided by the drawing at 6PM and the consolation prize at 10:12 PM.

[ta0]

Somebody had suggested that I didn't publish the names of the ticket holders, but I thought maximum transparency was the way to go. Well . . . the Pick Three for the 6PM drawing, as can be watched archived at the Texas Lotto, was 5-1-9, so the first two digits form 51. As it is over 49, we need to subtract 50 and the winning ticket for the beer sign was: 01 which belongs to . . .  ta0!      

There is still the third prize that will be drawn tonight.

[ta0]

The last drawing of the day was 9-3-5. So we have a 93 as the first two. As it is over 49, we subtract 50 and the third prize winner is:
43=> Cosa wins the RED TOP MALT collectible!

Thank you very much to all who participated. We were just 1 ticket short of a sold out!  I wish everybody could have won a prize. But be sure that the money raised will be used wisely in promoting the hobby. In fact, the board of directors is always open to good ideas so don't hesitate to communicate them to us.
You are TOPS!

16 => Cyril is the winner!

that's very funny !
 He who has donated two of the three items,
and who has bought some tickets,
is now the winner !

I have just told him the good news and he says that he would rather have us  find a way to donate the book to somebody else
( he already has 3  copies of the first edition)

we'll see....

We could always draw another number. It would certainly be exciting!

Perhaps. Let me confirm with Cyril.

[ta0]

Good news! Second chance to win the book with the numbers you already bought! 

Cyril has agreed to have the book prize go back into the raffle for a second chance!
Thanks a lot Cyril! As a compensation we will give him some free tickets for the next raffle (he won't let go John's top if he wins it, I assure you!)

Let's use Monday's evening raffle: 6PM CDT! First 2 numbers of Pick 3 as before.
If Cyril wins again (or number 49 is drawn if it is still unsold) we will try again with the night raffle, etc, until somebody else wins it.

GOOD LUCK ON THE SECOND CHANCE!

[ta0]

bumping up the good news! 

[ta0]

The new drawing was: 0-8-8, so the winning number was:

08 => SABASPIN wins the grand prize!

Louren's book is going to Puerto Rico. Congratulations!

[ta0]

I hear that Sabaspin did not have the book already: he won't be disappointed! 
Cosa: Cyril is sending me the Red Top Malt collectible together with the Blue Top Beer sign. I'll forward you your prize when I get it.

To all the rest of the participants: thank you a lot for your support! We will soon announce the second raffle for John Markus' fabulous top!
