Check Detroit's 2026 raffles, recent Tigers winners, claim status, age rules, and gaps in public results.
Detroit's verified 2026 local raffles include the Detroit Tigers Foundation and Detroit Red Wings Foundation 50/50 drawings at home games. A raffle combines chance, a ticket purchase, a random drawing, and a prize; among these programs, only the Tigers page currently posts a public 2026 winner list. The Detroit Lions page documents its 2025 raffle rather than confirming a 2026 program.
This list reflects information available in August 2026 and distinguishes active drawings from publicly available winner records.
Latest Detroit Tigers winners
The Detroit Tigers Foundation holds a 50/50 raffle at every Tigers home game. The winner receives half the jackpot, while the remaining proceeds support the Foundation. The latest result listed in August was the July 29 game against the Orioles.
Ticket 11243476300 won $8,797 and was marked claimed on the Detroit Tigers Foundation winning-ticket list. The July 26 prize was $13,742 and remained unclaimed. Several other 2026 entries were also unclaimed, so participants should compare every digit and review the claim status.
Red Wings and Lions availability
The Detroit Red Wings Foundation runs a cashless 50/50 raffle at every home game. Sales continue through the second intermission, with the winning number announced during the third period. However, the Red Wings arena information page does not publish a 2026 winners list.
The Detroit Lions' 50/50 raffle page covers the 2025 season, so it does not confirm a 2026 program. Its documented rules require purchasers to be at least 18, allow 60 days to claim, and note that taxes apply. Readers should not assume that a past season's schedule or claim procedure remains active.
Confirm the event date and current rules before purchasing or relying on an older winning number.
How to protect and check your entry
Tigers raffle sales run from gate opening through the seventh-inning stretch. Winners do not need to be present, which makes retaining the ticket essential. After entering: A winning announcement alone may not show whether the prize was later claimed.
For Tigers entries, the published number-and-status list provides the clearest available check.
- Keep the complete ticket until the prize is claimed.
- Compare the full number with the organizer's published result.
- Check whether the prize is marked claimed or unclaimed.
- Follow the claim instructions for that specific team or venue.
- Do not apply one organization's deadline or procedure to another raffle.
Michigan raffle rules to know
Michigan treats raffles as regulated charitable gaming, not as state lottery drawings. Only a previously qualified nonprofit with an approved license application may conduct one; the Michigan Lottery Charitable Gaming FAQ says donated prizes do not remove that requirement. Purchasers must be at least 18, although a minor may receive a raffle prize as a gift.
Individual tickets and venues may impose additional conditions. Michigan classifies a drawing with no more than $500 in total prizes per day as a small raffle. A prize total above $500 requires a large-raffle license.
