4. Draws to Determine the Semi-Finalists:
(A) At the end of the first inning of the Game, ten (10) potential semi-finalists ("Potential Semi-Finalists") will be randomly selected via a draw from among all eligible entries received pursuant to Section 2 which information will be announced on the Main Video Board and PA announcement. The ten (10) Potential Semi-Finalists will be required to correctly answer a mathematical skill testing question and sign a publicity release and waiver before being confirmed as a Semi-Finalist for a chance to participate in the Grand Prize Ceremony ("Semi-Finalist"). In the event a Potential Semi-Finalist fails to correctly answer the mathematical skill testing question and/or does not sign the publicity release and waiver, another random draw will be held to select another Potential Semi-Finalist and this method will continue until ten (10) Semi-Finalists have been confirmed.
(B) In the middle of the third inning of the Game, a random draw will be held to randomly eliminate three (3) Semi-Finalists and the remaining seven (7) Semi-Finalists' section, row and seat number or name on the ballot entry will be announced again on the Main Video Board and PA announcement;
5. In the middle of the fourth inning of the Game, a random draw will be held to randomly eliminate four (4) Semi-Finalists and the remaining three (3) Semi-Finalists' section, row and seat number or name on the ballot entry will be announced again on the Main Video Board and PA announcement. These three (3) Semi-Finalists will be eligible to participate in the Grand Prize Ceremony to determine the selected entrant for the Grand Prize, Secondary Prize and Tertiary Prize.
The odds of being selected as a Semi-Finalist and participating in the Grand Prize Ceremony, depend on the total number of eligible entries received.
6. GRAND PRIZE CEREMONY
At the bottom of the seventh (7th) inning of the Game, each of the three (3) Semi-Finalists (or their authorized agent (s)) will participate in the Grand Prize Ceremony to determine the selected entrant for the Grand Prize, Secondary Prize and Tertiary Prize. Semi-Finalists who are not present or who have not responded to an in-game announcement or prior advice to present themselves at a specified time and location for preparation for the Grand Prize Ceremony will be represented by a member of the Blue Jays who will stand in and participate in the Grand Prize Ceremony on the Semi-Finalist's behalf. Each Semi-Finalist who has presented himself/herself in person must present adequate identification and meet all pre-qualifications before being permitted to participate in the Grand Prize Ceremony. In the absence of adequate identification a member of the Blue Jays will stand in for the eligible Semi-Finalist. Semi-Finalists/agents will be ushered to the Grand Prize Ceremony area. Off camera, the order in which the Semi-Finalists will participate will be determined by each Semi-Finalist picking a baseball from a secure bag which contains three (3) baseballs numbered one (1), two (2) and three (3). This will determine the order in which the three (3) Semi-Finalists will draw on-camera from another secure bag which contains twenty-five (25) balls each with one of the Team's twenty-five (25) man roster numbers on the balls.
At the bottom the of the seventh (7th) inning of the Game, each of the three (3) Semi-Finalists selected player numbers appearing on the ball they selected will appear on the Main Video Board, where a baseball spin wheel interactive will be on-screen. This spin wheel will feature all twenty-five (25) player numbers. The wheel will spin and will land on one (1) of the twenty-five (25) players numbers. The Semi Finalist whose baseball number is closest to the number on the wheel, without going over, will be the potential Grand Prize Winner. The Semi-Finalist whose baseball number is second closest to the number on the wheel, without going over, will be the potential Secondary Prize winner and the Semi-Finalist whose baseball number is third closest to the number on the wheel, without going over, will be the potential winner of the Tertiary Prize.
In the event all of the Semi-Finalists baseball numbers are higher than the number on the wheel, each Semi-Finalist will put their baseball with their player number into a secure bag and a representative of the Blue Jays or the Sponsor will pull one ball at a time from the secure bag. The Semi-Finalist whose baseball is pulled first will be the potential winner of the Grand Prize, the Semi-Finalist whose baseball is pulled second will be the potential winner of the Secondary Prize and the Semi-Finalist whose baseball is pulled last will be the potential winner of the Tertiary Prize.
In the event two (2) of the Semi-Finalists baseball numbers are higher than the number on the wheel, each Semi-Finalist will put their baseball with their player number into a secure bag and a representative of the Blue Jays or the Sponsor will pull one ball at a time from the secure bag. The Semi-Finalist whose baseball is pulled first will be the potential winner of the Secondary Prize and the Semi-Finalist whose baseball is pulled last will be the potential winner of the Tertiary Prize.
In order to be declared the winner of the Grand Prize, Secondary Prize or Tertiary Prize, the potential winners must meet all conditions as set out in these Official Rules and sign and return to the Blue Jays a Contest Winner Liability and Publicity Release within the time specified. The odds of a Semi-Finalist being a winner of the Grand Prize, Secondary Prize or Tertiary Prize is one (1) in three (3).
