At Gold Rush, July 13-16, 2009, there will be 10
finalists to compete for $5000.
Tickets will be
eliminated from the barrel each day until there are
only 10 tickets left in the barrel at closing
ceremonies.
The people who
possess the 10 tickets that are left in the barrel
will be called up on stage, if they are present. If
they are not present the selection on the ticket to
SPLIT or DRAW will be honored.
Everyone will be
asked if they would like to SPLIT or DRAW. If
everyone agrees to SPLIT, then each person will walk
away with $500. If even one person does not agree to
SPLIT, one of the remaining 10 tickets will be
eliminated from the drawing.
This process will
continue until either 1. Everyone agrees to SPLIT or
2. The final ticket is left in the barrel – in which
case that person would win the $5,000 prize.
