RALEIGH (WTVD) — Just in time for football season, the North Carolina Education Lottery is kicking off a new game with a new scratch-off ticket that should smell like the smoky BBQ from your weekend tailgate.
“North Carolinians are wild about BBQ so we think this is going to be a great ticket,” said Alice Garland, NC Education Lottery’s Executive Director on Tuesday outside Clyde Cooper’s BBQ in downtown Raleigh.
Usually priced at two bucks a pop, you can scratch and sniff and try your luck at the $25,000 top prize.
The North Carolina Education Lottery is also hosting a contest where you could win a $50 gift card. All you have to do is go to their Facebook page here and let them know if you think the best BBQ in North Carolina comes from the east or the west. Your comment will be entered in a weekly drawing to win one of ten $50 gift cards to enjoy your favorite BBQ.
