Official Rules

This sweepstakes (“Sweepstakes”) is sponsored by Bill Simmons Media Group, LLC (“BSMG”) and is open only to legal residents of the United States, excluding Florida, New York and Rhode Island (“Eligibility Area”) and shall be construed according to, and governed exclusively by, U.S. law. You may not participate in the Sweepstakes unless you meet the eligibility requirements set forth below and are a legal resident physically located in the United States at the time of entry.

SWEEPSTAKES DESCRIPTION

The Sweepstakes begins on or about September 13, 2017 and ends at 11:59pm on September 15, 2017 (the “Sweepstakes Period”). You acknowledge that dates for such Sweepstakes Period are subject to change in BSMG’s sole discretion. At the end of the Sweepstakes Period, one (1) entrant will be notified as the Prize (as defined below) winner (“Winner”). By participating in the Sweepstakes, each entrant unconditionally accepts and agrees to comply with and abide by these Official Rules as follows:

ELIGIBILITY

NO PURCHASE OR PAYMENT IS NECESSARY IN ORDER TO ENTER THE SWEEPSTAKES. VOID WHERE PROHIBITED OR RESTRICTED BY LAW.

Only legal residents of the Eligibility Area who are eighteen (18) years of age and older are eligible to enter.

ENTRIES

Entries are captured through entries given via submission to the BSMG official Twitter account (@ringer) by responding to @ringer via Twitter with entrant’s prediction for the winner of the September 16, 2017 Canelo Alvarez vs. Gennady Golovkin boxing match. Entrants must follow @ringer on Twitter to be eligible to win. BSMG is not responsible for incomplete, illegible, misdirected, late, lost, damaged, stolen, or postage-due entry submissions, which may be judged void. Entries by any method other than those set forth above are void. Limit one (1) entry per person and/or household and/or wireless phone number, regardless of the method of entry. Proof of entry, regardless of method of entry, is not considered proof of delivery to or receipt by BSMG of an entry for this Sweepstakes. In the event a dispute regarding the identity of the individual who actually submitted an entry cannot be resolved to BSMG's satisfaction, the affected entry will be deemed ineligible.

WINNER SELECTION AND NOTIFICATION

The Winner will be selected by BSMG in a random drawing. At the end of the Sweepstakes Period, the Winner from all eligible entries received during the Sweepstakes Period will be notified. The potential Winner will be notified by telephone and/or mail and/or e-mail, using contact information provided or collected with Sweepstakes entry. BSMG shall make the Winner list available on its official Twitter account following notification to the Winner. BSMG shall have no liability for any Winner notification that is lost, intercepted or not received by a potential Winner for any reason. If, despite reasonable efforts, a potential Winner does not respond within twelve (12) hours of the first notification attempt, or if the Prize or prize notification is returned as unclaimed or undeliverable to such potential Winner, such potential Winner will forfeit his or her Prize and an alternate Winner may be selected. If any potential Winner is found to be ineligible, or if he or she has not complied with these Official Rules, or declines the Prize for any reason prior to award, such potential Winner will be disqualified and an alternate Winner may be selected.

PRIZE: One (1) Winner will receive:

• One (1) boxing glove autographed by Canelo Alvarez and Gennady Golovkin.

This agreement to indemnify, hold harmless and defend applies even if the act or omission complained of was allegedly caused in whole or in part by the strict liability or negligence in any form of the Released Parties. Released Parties assume no responsibility for any damage to a Winner’s or any other person’s computer system or wireless phone which is occasioned by participating in the Sweepstakes, or for any computer system, phone line, hardware, software or program malfunctions, or other errors, failures, delayed computer transmissions or network connections that are human or technical in nature.

BSMG reserves the right in its sole discretion to disqualify any individual who is found to be tampering with the entry process or the operation of the Sweepstakes, to be acting in violation of these Official Rules, or to be acting in an unsportsmanlike or disruptive manner, or with the intent to disrupt or undermine the legitimate operation of the Sweepstakes, or to annoy, abuse, threaten or harass any other person, and BSMG reserves the right to seek damages and other remedies from any such person to the fullest extent permitted by law. No mechanically reproduced, illegible, incomplete, forged, software-generated or other automated multiple entries will be accepted. BSMG reserves the right to modify, extend, suspend or terminate the Sweepstakes if it determines, in its sole discretion, that the Sweepstakes is technically impaired or corrupted or that fraud or technical problems, failures or malfunctions or other causes beyond BSMG’s control have destroyed or severely undermined or to any degree impaired the integrity, administration, security, proper play and/or feasibility of the Sweepstakes as contemplated herein. In the event BSMG is prevented from awarding prizes or continuing with the Sweepstakes as contemplated herein by any event beyond its control, including but not limited to fire, flood, natural or man-made epidemic of health of other means, earthquake, explosion, labor dispute or strike, act of God or public enemy, satellite or equipment failure, riot or civil disturbance, terrorist threat or activity, war (declared or undeclared) or any federal state or local government law, order, or regulation, public health crisis (e.g., SARS), order of any court or jurisdiction, or other cause not reasonably within BSMG’s control (each a “Force Majeure” event or occurrence), then BSMG shall have the right to modify, suspend, or terminate the Sweepstakes. If the Sweepstakes is terminated before its designated end date, BSMG will (if possible) select winners in a random drawing from all eligible, non-suspect entries received as of the date of the event giving rise to the termination. Inclusion in such drawing shall be each entrant’s sole and exclusive remedy under such circumstances. Only the type of prizes described in these Official Rules will be awarded. If, for any reason, more bona fide winners come forward seeking to claim prizes in excess of the number of each type of prize set forth in these Official Rules, the winners, or remaining winners, as the case may be, of the advertised number of prizes available in the prize category in question may be selected in a random drawing from among all persons making purportedly valid claims for such prize(s). Inclusion in such drawing shall be each entrant’s sole and exclusive remedy under such circumstances. These Official Rules cannot be modified or amended in any way except in a written document issued in accordance with law by a duly authorized representative of BSMG. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of these rules shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision. In the event that any provision is determined to be invalid or otherwise unenforceable or illegal, these rules shall otherwise remain in effect and shall be construed in accordance with their terms as if the invalid or illegal provision were not contained herein.
