A Winner’s failure to return all required forms in this seven (7) day time period may result in the Winner being disqualified and an alternate Winner may or may not be selected at Sponsor’s sole discretion. If a dispute arises regarding who submitted an on-line entry, the entry will be deemed submitted by the holder of the email account as determined by Sponsor. If a Winner is ineligible for any reason whatsoever, Sponsor may hold another random drawing to determine an alternate Winner. However, if delays in obtaining the necessary releases would make it impracticable to select another Winner due to the timing of the use of one of the prizes (for example game tickets), no alternative Winner will be awarded.
