list.

3,000 tickets were sold around
the state at $25.00 each or 5 for $100. The Seller of the Winning
Ticket received $1,000.
Prizes were awarded by the
sequence number in which the ticket was drawn:
Tickets # 1, 500, 1000, 1500, & 2000 awarded $500.00...
Ticket 2500 awarded $1,000.00...
Every 25th ticket starting at 2501 awarded $100.00...
Every 100th ticket starting at and including 2600 awarded $500.00...
Ticket #2999 awarded $2,000.00...
Ticket #3000 awarded the Grand Prize the T-Bird...
Robert Heym of Anchorage held
the last and 3000th ticket drawn and was the winner of the grand
prize, a 1957 Thunderbird.
Dick Kauffman of Ketchikan
held the next to the last, the 2999th ticket drawn and was the
winner of the $2,000 cash prize.
When contacted by George Tipton
Wednesday morning and informed he was only one ticket away from
winning the Grand Prize T-Bird and was the second place winner
of $2,000, Kauffman said, "You've got to be kidding!"
He said the lesson to be learned here is that sometimes it does
pay to come in last - or nearly last.
