IV. HOW AND WHEN WINNERS WILL BE SELECTED AND NOTIFIED: Representatives of Sponsor will contact Entrants for a brief phone interview. Entrants will be judged based on potential for on-air appeal; energetic expression; and excitement about participation. Up to 30 Teams (Entrants and their Partners) will be selected to attend the live show as outlined in the Eligibility section. ONLY confirmed, pre-registered Teams will be eligible to receive a gift card and compete for the Grand Prize. All selected Teams will compete in a skill based challenge to win the Grand Prize. In the event of a tie, the tied participants will be asked to answer one or more trivia questions or participate in one or more guessing contests until one Grand Prize Winner is determined. If Grand Prize winner is deemed ineligible, fails to comply with contest procedures, or is not available to claim Grand Prize as outlined the prize will be awarded to the runner-up. Grand Prize Winner will be announced on air and/or posted on the show’s website. Final determination of winners is always conditional on verification of eligibility and compliance with all rules and procedures.
