TROLLEY SQUARE PROMOTION YIELDS "WOO-HOO" WINNERS

Dover, DE -- Edward Horgan of Wilmington and Danielle Urbano of Newark won prizes for two separate promotions at the end of the Delaware Lottery's month-long October promotion at the popular Trolley Square location Kelly's Logan House. Horgan received a $1,000 cash grand prize from the Delaware Lottery after he and other patrons entered their non-winning LUCKY 13 Instant Game tickets into second chance drawing. Additionally a four night, five day all-inclusive Caribbean getaway was given to Urbano as a result of a separate drawing.

The Delaware Lottery held weekly events every Friday in October in Wilmington at Kelly's Logan House with WJBR-FM. These events included live radio broadcasts with popular radio personality, Michael Waite, Instant Game ticket giveaways and a chance to enter non-winning tickets in a drawing for a $1,000 grand prize. An additional Caribbean getaway prize was also awarded to a participant who entered the independent drawing. Both winners were present when their names were announced at the end of the last appearance. During the events, Lottery talent, comedian Geno Bisconte, entertained patrons with Lottery trivia and t-shirt giveaways. Participants at the events were also given the opportunity to have their picture taken with friends and received a souvenir photo and frame card to take home with them that night.

The Delaware Lottery will continue to hold events at University of Delaware Basketball home games as well as monthly events at select area venues to support various Instant Games. Additional information is available on the Delaware Lottery website, www.delottery.com.
