If it is determined that a selected contestant is ineligible as a result of one or both of these restrictions, another contestant will be selected.  This selection procedure will continue until these restrictions are satisfied.
 
6) Anytime the WZBK / Lakefront Communications on-air studio is called, it is assumed by the caller that the phone call is being recorded and may be broadcast.  The caller grants permission to WZBK / Lakefront Communications to broadcast the call or record the call for later broadcast.

6a) For telephone contests, listeners may enter by calling 414-799-1069.  If any problems are discovered by WZBK / Lakefront Communications, different call-in numbers or addresses may be substituted and utilized after those numbers and addresses are broadcast on WZBK / Lakefront Communications.  In the event a caller is disconnected during a contest before his/her name and phone number is recorded, then the prize will be awarded to the next caller whose name and phone number are recorded.  The person operating the telephone at WZBK / Lakefront Communications has the final decision as to who is the winning caller.

7) For contests requiring written entry forms, they may be faxed to 414-978-9007, e-mailed to a contest specific address on www.bigbuck1069.com, or mailed/delivered to WZBK/ Lakefront Communications – 5407 West McKinley Avenue, Milwaukee, WI 53208.  All entries become property of WZBK / Lakefront Communications and will not be returned.  WZBK/ Lakefront Communications reserves the right to retain any or all contest materials for any reason that WZBK / Lakefront Communications deems necessary to the completion of the contest, or reasons relating to publicity and/or advertising.  WZBK/ Lakefront Communications shall have no responsibility for a contestant’s failure to win or claim any prize based on difficulties with telephone, facsimile, email, or internet difficulties, or any circumstances in any contest.
 
8) Any specific rules and/or restrictions pertaining to individual contests (entry dates, a limit on number or words on an entry, etc.) will be disclosed in on-air announcements.
 
9) Prizes must be picked up by the winners at the WZBK / Lakefront Communications business office or other pre-arranged or pre-announced location within thirty (30) days of notification to the winner, unless there is a deadline date by which the prizes must be picked up, in which case, that date will be specifically stated.  Otherwise, failure to pick up the prizes by the deadline will result in the forfeiture of the prize, which shall remain the property of WZBK / Lakefront Communications.  WZBK / Lakefront Communications assume no liability for the delivery of prizes.
 
10) In the event the winner is subject to, or the subject of, any order or legal process issued by any governmental agency having jurisdiction over the affairs of the winner (i.e. garnishment, child support order, judgment, lien, and the like), WZBK / Lakefront Communications' delivery of the prize to the official representative of the governmental entity claiming a right to the prize shall be thus deemed as WZBK / Lakefront Communications awarding the prize to the winner.  WZBK / Lakefront Communications shall be entitled to rely in good faith, upon any documents presented by the representative seeking to collect the prize in lieu of the winner.  WZBK / Lakefront Communications shall not be liable for any claim by any winner for damages incidental thereto.
 
11) As a condition of entering a contest, contestants must agree that upon winning, they will consent to the use of their name, likeness, and all verbal and written communications with WZBK / Lakefront Communications for publicity purposes.
 
12) Employees of WZBK / Lakefront Communications, the Milwaukee Radio Group, and its ultimate parent company, Saga Communications, Inc., their advertising agencies, affiliates, contest sponsors, employees and immediate families of each, and employees of all media of mass communication within a one hundred mile radius of the WZBK main studio are not eligible to win any contest.  Immediate family includes the spouse, great-grandparents, grandparents, parents, brothers, sisters, children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren of the employee and his/her spouse. This also includes individuals for whom the employee is current legal guardian.
 
13) All prizes are non-transferable and are not redeemable for cash. WZBK / Lakefront Communications reserves the right to substitute a prize of similar value.  WZBK / Lakefront Communications cannot be held responsible for unforeseen cancellations or delays of concerts/events or transportation caused by weather, promoter or performer.
 
14) Winners are solely responsible for all applicable local, state and federal taxes.  Winner may be issued a 1099 MISC federal tax form if in one calendar year the prize value of all prizes won in contests from WZBK / Lakefront Communications and/or participating co-sponsors exceeds $600.00.
 
15) WZBK / Lakefront Communications, the Milwaukee Radio Group, assumes no liability for liability, damages, situations, repairs, or incidents arising from any aspect of any prize awarded in any contest. WZBK / Lakefront Communications, the Milwaukee Radio Group, all participating co-sponsor companies and their advertising and promotional agencies, affiliates thereof, employees, and immediate families of each absolve themselves and shall be held harmless from any action or liability arising from any contest or prize awarded in any contest.  As a condition of entering a contest, participants may be required, upon winning, to sign a release form and affidavit of eligibility to claim their prize.  Failure to do so will result in forfeiture of the contestant’s right to claim or receive the prize.
 
16) The following are specifically related to E-contests and E-Mail Club promotions on www.bigbuck1069.com.

a) All appropriate information in required fields must be filled out or contestants will be disqualified. 

b) To be eligible to win a prize, a contestant must reside within the listening area of WZBK / Lakefront Communications, as defined within the exclusive discretion of WZBK / Lakefront Communications management.

c) Any problems with the internet or email are not WZBK / Lakefront Communications' responsibility.

d) Contestants who attempt to register to participate on WZBK / Lakefront Communications’ websites may be required to produce a printed copy of proof of registration before being allowed to participate in the contest.

17)  Due to the nature of our programs that are heard on-line over the internet, contests heard on the radio station’s internet audio stream are slightly delayed from the time the contests are heard on the broadcast station, and will be running behind the broadcast signal. Thus, all contests heard are delayed. This delay can last for as much as 30 seconds or more.  This means that when WZBK contests are played that require a specific caller to telephone the radio station (such as “Caller number 10 when you hear the sound effect”), listeners to the on-line audio stream may be at a disadvantage in participating over those listeners who hear the contests on-air.
 
18) All giveaways and contests are void where prohibited by law.  All local, state and federal regulations apply. As a licensee of the FCC and a trustee of the public airwaves, WZBK / Lakefront Communications reserves the right to interrupt and/or discontinue any contest or promotion (and not award the offered prize) at the discretion of WZBK / Lakefront Communications management if world events, the national mood, or public safety so warrant. WZBK / Lakefront Communications reserves the right to disqualify any winner if the contest rules have been violated in any way.  WZBK / Lakefront Communications reserves the right to amend the rules to any contest at any time. All decisions of WZBK/ Lakefront Communications are final.

19)  Although WZBK / Lakefront Communications will make reasonable efforts to conduct its contests substantially as announced or advertised, WZBK / Lakefront Communications reserves the right in extraordinary situations to change or modify the rules of its contests as exigent circumstances may require.  In such cases, WZBK / Lakefront Communications will amend the rules for that contest and broadcast the amended rules as promptly as possible.  In such case, the contest will be conducted in accordance with the amended rules.
 
20) A copy of these rules are available during business hours at the WZBK / Lakefront Communications studios, 5407 West McKinley Avenue, Milwaukee, WI 53208.
