100 tickets at $10 each, totals $1,000 for each team. Anyone contributing funds to these GoFundMe sites after the total has reached $1000 or 100 tickets for each team is NOT buying a ticket, but is DONATING funds and a raffle ticket will NOT be issued.

If any donation is less than $10, it shall be strictly a donation and does NOT buy a raffle ticket.
