Entries made by any other individual or any entity, and/or originating at any other web site or e-mail address, including but not limited to entering service sites, will be declared invalid and disqualified for this Contest.

The potential winners will be subject to verification and compliance with these Official Rules. The potential winners will be notified by direct message using the social media account information used by the entrant to enter the Contest. Potential winners will be asked to provide contact information for their school sports team, such as a coach or a school administrator who will be awarded the prize on behalf of a verified winner’s school. The Contest Entities shall have no liability for any winner notification that is lost, intercepted or not received by the potential winner for any reason. If any potential winner does not respond within the time required by Sponsor, or if the winner notification is returned as unclaimed or undeliverable to any 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, or if the winner’s school declines the prize or refuses to allow Sponsor to use the school name or mascot, such potential winner will be disqualified and the prize may be awarded to an alternate winner. Sponsor may successively attempt to contact up to two (2) potential winner(s) of an applicable prize in accordance with such procedure, and if there is still no confirmed winner(s) of such applicable prize after such attempts have been made, if any, such prize may go unawarded.
5. PRIZES. Five (5) prizes are available. Each prize consists of one (1) Burritos by the Box for up to fifteen (15) weeks (the “Burritos for a Season Prize”) for each week of the regular high school sports season, for each verified winner’s high school sports team that was featured in the winning Submission (up to 30 people, with exact quantity to be determined based on the number of players and coaches on each verified winner’s team). Each Burritos for a Season Prize will expire at the end of the season for each winner’s team featured in the winning Submission. The prize will be delivered as a code that can be redeemed by each verified winner’s school up to fifteen (15) times.
