WCLC may, in its discretion, also request additional information from an eligible entrant as part of the instant prize claim process, such as verification of his/her eligibility and the original Contest portion of the ticket corresponding to the BONUS GAME from which the instant prize occurred. If the eligible entrant does not claim the instant prize as described above before the Contest entry closing time, the entrant waives his/her rights to the instant prize and that instant prize will not be awarded, and WCLC has no responsibility to award a substitute prize to that eligible entrant.
