During the Promotion Period, participants must (a) follow @pbpla and @sake_festival_la on Instagram, (b) like the post associated with this Promotion, and (c) tag a friend in the comment section of the post. Each friend tagged equals one submission for entry. Any attempt by any entrant to obtain more than the stated number of entries by using multiple/different email addresses, identities, registrations and logins, or any other methods will void such entries and that entrant may be disqualified. Use of any automated system to participate is prohibited and will result in disqualification. Proof of submission of entry does not constitute proof of receipt of entry. By participating in the Promotion, including by accepting the Reward, you agree to be bound by these Official Rules and by the decision of PbP and LTSC, which are final and binding on all matters. PbP and LTSC reserve the right to modify the Prize procedures at its discretion. If you do not agree to these Official Rules, you may not participate in the Promotion nor receive the Prize.

6. SELECTION AND VERIFICATION OF WINNER. Within one week of the end of the Promotion Period, PbP and LTSC will randomly select two (2) potential prize winners from all eligible entries received. The odds of winning are based on the number of eligible entries received. The potential winners will be notified by private message through a direct message through Instagram or by email to the account provided during entry within one (1) day after being selected. Except where legally prohibited, each potential winner must complete, within twenty-four (24) hours of being notified, an additional form for more information and a release in order to claim his/her prize. If a potential winner cannot be contacted twenty-four (24) hours after the first attempt to contact him/her, or if he/she fails to complete and return the request for more information within the required time period (if applicable), or if potential winner is not available to accept delivery of the Prize, or in the event that a potential winner is disqualified for any reason, PbP and LTSC will award the applicable prize to an alternate winner selected by a random drawing from among all remaining eligible entries. Up to three alternate drawings will be held, after which any remaining prizes will remain un-awarded.
Verification of Potential Winners: All potential winners are subject to verification by PbP and LTSC whose decisions are final and binding in all matters related to the Promotion. An entrant is not a winner of any prize unless and until entrant’s eligibility has been verified and entrant has been notified that verification is complete.
