Prizes are non-transferable and substitutions of cash or equivalent are not allowed except at the discretion of WERS.

WERS reserves the right at any time to award prizes to another eligible winner drawn at random in the event prizes, for any reason, cannot be utilized by the original winner or in the event the original winner does not meet eligibility requirements.

No proxies (authorized agents or written authorizations) are accepted.

Some concert prizes may be in the form of a single ticket, not a pair of tickets. The Winner will be notified at the time of winning if the prize is a single ticket.

Dates for concerts, flight departures/arrivals, weekend stays, etc. cannot be changed by the Winner. If the Winner is not able or chooses not to accept prize “as is,” the Winner forfeits his or her prize. WERS reserves the right to select another winner.
