Contest Rules

The following rules apply in contests or promotions associated with WUWM-FM, which is licensed to the University of Wisconsin Board of Regents and operated by the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee College of Letters and Science. By participating in any such contests or promotions, participants agree to be bound by these rules. In addition, particular contests and promotions may have rules that are specific to those contests or promotions. If the particular rules for a specific contest or promotion conflict with the following general rules, the particular rules will control.

  1. No purchase necessary. Limit one web entry per person, household address, or e-mail address. Multiple entries will be discarded.
  2. Unless otherwise noted, winner(s) will be selected by random drawing from all eligible entries. Odds of winning a contest are dependent upon the number of eligible entries received.
  3. Limit one winner per household within a 30-day period.
  4. WUWM employees, former WUWM employees, their immediate families, and/or those living in the same household of a WUWM employee are not eligible to win WUWM contests.

  7. WUWM reserves the right to substitute prizes of equal or greater value; winners do not have any right to substitution of prizes.

If the winner cannot be contacted within 48 hours of our initial email/phone call, WUWM reserves the right to withdraw the award or award the prize to another selected winner. Time sensitive tickets may be left at will-call of the event venue and, in such instances, are the responsibility of that venue.
