If given a second chance at something, would you take it? If it meant possibly winning money to play with the Pennsylvania Lottery, why wouldn't you?

The Pennsylvania Lottery announced that the Bring on Spring Second-Chance Drawing is now open to players. This second-chance drawing is giving players a chance to win their share of $305,000 in prizes, including money to play Pennsylvania Lottery online.

What is the Bring on Spring Second-Chance Drawing?

This happens to be the Lottery's annual spring second-chance drawing and features draw games, including Keno.

From now through May 23, 2024, players can enter any winning or non-winning Pick 2, Pick 3, Pick 4, Pick 5, Treasure hunt, Cash 5 with Quick Cash, Match 6 Lotto, Cash4Life, Powerball, Mega Millions, Keno, Derby Cash, and End Zone Cash tickets purchased from a licensed lottery retailer. Yes, the tickets have to be purchased from a lotto retailer. Any draw game tickets purchased online will not be eligible for entry.

How to enter your tickets?

To enter your tickets, players need to go to the VIP Players Club on the Pennsylvania Lottery website. Players can also scan-to-enter using the official app from the Lottery after reviewing entry instructions, prize details, rules, restrictions, and drawing information.

For every $0.10 in the ticket purchase price for Xpress Sports (Derby Cash and End Zone Cash), players will be awarded one entry. There will only be one official entry code printed on each qualifying ticket.

The Lottery advises players to enter their tickets as soon as possible. Any mailed or late entries will not be accepted.

About the Pennsylvania Lottery

While the Pennsylvania Lottery is giving players a second chance at winning money, they have continuously given back to older residents in the state. Since ticket sales began in 1972, the Lottery has contributed more than $35.1 billion in lottery revenue to fund property tax and rent rebates, prescription assistance, care services, transportation, and local services, including senior centers and meals.

The Pennsylvania Lottery operates as a bureau within the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue, and it remains the only state lottery that gives all proceeds to programs that benefit older residents. In just the last year alone, the Pennsylvania Lottery has given more than $1 billion in lottery revenue to these programs.

Enjoy playing the Pennsylvania Lottery, and please remember to play responsibly.
