MADISON, Wis. — This year’s NASCAR Powerball Playoff™ includes Wisconsin’s Fawn Senn of Fox Lake. Senn and 15 lottery players from throughout the country were introduced on September 1, 2024, during the broadcast of the Cook Out Southern 500 at Darlington Raceway on USA Network. The 16 lottery players will win additional cash prizes and have a chance to win a VIP trip for two to the 2024 NASCAR Championship Weekend™ at Phoenix Raceway® and entry into a nationally televised drawing for $1 million.
“I am over the moon excited,” said Senn. “This type of thing never happens to me. This whole thing was very accidental, but I’m thrilled I landed a magic ticket.”
Entered through a national campaign that included 27 participating state lotteries, including the Wisconsin Lottery, the 16 semi-finalists were selected or drawn from in-state contests and second-chance drawings held by each lottery throughout the 2024 NASCAR regular season. Senn won her opportunity in the Wisconsin Lottery’s NASCAR Powerball Playoff Bonus Draw, a limited time offer in June.
The 16 lottery players will advance to a series of Playoff drawings that mirror the elimination rounds of the NASCAR Playoffs. The four lottery players still in the Playoff after the Championship 4 drawing will win a VIP trip for two to NASCAR Championship Weekend™ at Phoenix Raceway®, Nov. 8-10, plus entry into the drawing for the $1 million prize.
The $1 million drawing will be broadcast live during NBC’s pre-race coverage of the NASCAR Cup Series Championship Race™ on Sunday, Nov. 10. Cash prizes will be awarded to all 16 lottery players based on their elimination position.
