Entry Limits and Combined Entry Pool
Limit one (1) entry per person and per email address, per valid keyword, per participating brand contest page, during the applicable entry period. An entrant may submit the same valid keyword through more than one participating brand contest page, provided the entrant submits no more than one entry through each eligible brand page for that keyword.
. For each weekday keyword, an entrant may submit one entry through the Throwback Nation page and one entry through the Throwback 2K page.
. For each weekend keyword, an entrant may submit one entry through each of the three participating brand pages for the entire Saturday-Sunday period. The same weekend keyword does not create a second entry opportunity when Sunday begins.
There are twenty-two (22) weekday keywords and five (5) weekend keywords. An eligible entrant who properly enters every available keyword through every eligible participating brand page may receive a maximum of fifty-nine (59) entries. Listeners are not required to listen to or enter through all three brands. All eligible entries received during the Contest Period will be combined into one drawing.
