You Just Scratched Your Way to Cash Explosion... Maybe?
Hold on there, champ! Before you dust off your tux and practice your game show catchphrases, let's make sure that scratched-off ticket is actually your golden ticket to TV fame (and potentially a mountain of cash).
Unearthing the "ENTRY" - Are You Eligible?
Here's the deal: You need to find the word "ENTRY" gleaming at you from your Cash Explosion ticket. Not twice, not once, but a glorious three times! It can be scattered anywhere on the ticket, or it might be hiding out in the magical "Bonus Play" box on your $5 Cash Explosion or Cashword ticket.
Think of it like this: Three "ENTRY"s is the lottery ticket's way of whispering, "Hey, you've got a shot at the big time!"
Conquering the App: How to Enter Your Ticket Virtually
Alright, so you've got the magic number of "ENTRY"s. Now it's time to unleash the power of modern technology and enter your ticket electronically. Here's where the official Ohio Lottery app comes in. Yes, you'll need to download it if you haven't already (don't worry, it's not filled with annoying ads for other lottery games... probably).
Once you're in the app, find the MyLotto Rewards section. This is where the magic happens. Follow the app's instructions to scan your ticket with your phone's camera. It's like you're a secret agent using high-tech gadgets to unlock a fortune (except way less stressful and hopefully less laser beams).
Pro Tip: Make sure your phone's camera has a clear view of the entire ticket, and hold it nice and steady. Nobody wants a blurry "ENTRY" to throw a wrench in your game show dreams.
Congratulations, You've Entered! Now What?
You've successfully submitted your ticket! Now, it's time to settle in, grab some snacks (because who doesn't love snacking while watching game shows?), and maybe even practice your most enthusiastic "Oh. My. Word!" in case you get the call.
Remember: Each ticket can only be entered once, so don't go crazy scanning the same ticket over and over. The Ohio Lottery will randomly select winners from the pool of entries, so just relax and let fate take the wheel (or should we say, spin the prize wheel?).
