I saw this in my email. 

Doesn't say when or if it already started.

Damn, that's a potentially huge payout. Good stuff and a good cause.

The Cubs were doing this at the game I went to at Wrigley.  I don't know what the buy in was but I believe the pot was 50K.

Whoever did the pricing on the tickets is sharp.   What a deal on the $20 and $50 values!

[DenPA2002]

I'll give this a shot Monday.

I have visited other stadiums over the years and liked that they had a raffle so was hoping the O’s would eventually do this as well.

Yeah, but how hard is it to check your the winning #s against 338 different tickets to see if you won!   You would miss multiple innings staring at #s.

I'm pretty sure you just get 338 consecutive numbers.

Right, they normally do blocks of tickets, they don't pick 338 out of a fishbowl and give them to you to sort through.

Right. This isn’t a scramble good tournament. Lol

i don’t remember seeing anyone in a uniform selling tickets, but I wasn’t really looking for that.
