Provided that he/she meets all of the above eligibility requirements, he/she will be declared the winner.
8. If it is determined that the entrant selected is not eligible to win the Grand Prize, in the station’s judgment and discretion, another random drawing will be held and this process will continue on until such time as an eligible entrant is found. In the unlikely event that no entrant is found to meet the specifications, then the Grand Prize will go un-awarded. In the event of a tie, the winner will be determined by and at WKSM/99ROCK’s discretion. The Winner’s name may or may not be announced on the air.
