If you wish to enter a particular Sweepstakes, follow the instructions provided by the Official Account for that Sweepstakes in the manner and time period set forth by the Official Account (the "Entry Period") to receive one (1) entry in the applicable Sweepstakes. Failure to follow any instructions provided by the Official Account or to submit your entry within the applicable Entry Period may result in disqualification.

ELIGIBILITY: The Sweepstakes is open only to legal residents of Texas who live within a seventy-five (75) mile radius from Toyota Stadium in Frisco, Texas (the “Territory”) who are of legal age of majority in the jurisdiction in which they reside (and at least 18 years old) at the time of entry. Employees, officers, and directors (including immediate family members (spouse, parent, child and sibling and their respective spouses, regardless of where they reside) and members of the same household, whether or not related) of Major League Soccer, L.L.C. (“MLS” or “Sponsor”), Soccer United Marketing, LLC (“SUM”), any MLS team (collectively, the “MLS Entities”) and each of their respective parents, affiliated companies, subsidiaries, licensees, distributors, dealers, retailers, printers and advertising and promotion agencies, and any and all other companies associated with the Sweepstakes are not eligible to participate or win a prize. The Sweepstakes is subject to all applicable federal, provincial, state, territory and local laws, rules and regulations.

RANDOM DRAWING: Promptly following the end of the applicable Entry Period, or as set forth in the material provided in conjunction with the particular social media sweepstakes, the potential winner(s) of the applicable Sweepstakes will be selected by random drawing from among all eligible entries received for the applicable Sweepstakes. Subject to verification of eligibility and compliance with the terms of these Official Rules, the potential winner(s) will be declared the official winner(s) of the applicable Sweepstakes (each, a "Winner" and collectively, the "Winners"). The decisions of Sponsor are final and binding on all matters relating to this Sweepstakes. Odds of winning depend on the total number of eligible entries received for the applicable Sweepstakes. Limit one (1) prize per person, family or household per Sweepstakes.

PRIZES: The prize(s) and quantity of such prize(s) to be offered in each Sweepstakes (each, a "Prize" and collectively, the "Prizes") shall be identified by the Official Account. The approximate retail value of each Prize shall be between $10 and $500. Exact Prize details shall be determined in the sole and absolute discretion of Sponsor. Prizes are non-transferable and non-assignable, with no cash redemptions except at Sponsor's sole and absolute discretion. Sponsor reserves the right to substitute any Prize (or any portion thereof) with one of comparable or greater value at its sole and absolute discretion. Each Winner is fully responsible for any and all applicable federal, provincial, state, territory and local taxes (including income and withholding taxes). All costs and expenses associated with Prize acceptance and use not specified by the Official Account as being provided as part of the Prize, including but not limited to lodging, transportation costs, meals, gratuities and other expenses incurred by accepting the Prize, are the sole responsibility of the Winner(s). In the event that the Prize includes tickets to a MLS game, exhibition or other event, the specific date and time will be determined in the sole discretion of Sponsor and/or the applicable MLS team, as applicable, and may be subject to change. Seat locations will be determined by Sponsor. The terms and conditions of any tickets awarded as a Prize will govern in the event a game, event or exhibition, as defined by MLS, is not played due to weather, an act of God, an act of terrorism, civil disturbance or any other reason. Winner and his/her guest(s) (if any) agree to comply with all applicable stadium regulations in connection with a Prize. Sponsor and the applicable MLS Entities reserve the right to remove or deny entry to winner and/or his/her guest(s) (if any) who engage(s) in a non-sportsmanlike or disruptive manner, or with intent to annoy, abuse, threaten or harass any other person at any game, event or exhibition. Released Parties (as defined below) will not be responsible for Acts of God, acts of terrorism, civil disturbances, work stoppage or any other natural disaster that may cause the cancellation or postponement of any MLS game, event or exhibition. MLS game, event and exhibition tickets awarded as Prizes may not be resold or offered for resale. Any such resale may result in disqualification and Prize forfeiture and may invalidate the license granted by the game ticket(s).

NOTIFICATION: Each potential winner will be notified via Direct Message to the potential winner's social media account provided at the time of entry (the "Prize Notification") and will be required to privately (through direct message, email, or other secure, private means) provide his/her name, address, age and other personal information necessary to verify eligibility and receive the Prize. In the event that any potential winner does not respond to any such Prize Notification within twenty-four (24) hours of the time of issuance (or within the time specified by the Official Account, as applicable), fails to provide Sponsor all information necessary to verify eligibility and/or receive the Prize or declines the Prize for any reason, a disqualification will result, the Prize will be forfeited and, at Sponsor's sole discretion and time permitting, an alternate potential winner may be randomly selected from among all remaining eligible entries for the applicable Sweepstakes. Each potential winner may be required to submit his/her valid social security number and/or other identification to Sponsor and may be required to execute, have notarized and return an Affidavit of Eligibility and Release of Liability and, unless prohibited by law, Publicity, within twenty-four (24) hours of the time of issuance (or within the time specified by the Official Account, as applicable). Failure to submit any identification required by Sponsor or to return the required documents within the specified time period, noncompliance with these Official Rules or the return of any Prize (or any portion thereof) or Prize Notification as undeliverable may result in disqualification and Prize forfeiture and, at Sponsor's sole discretion and time permitting, may cause an alternate potential winner to be randomly selected from among all remaining eligible entries for the applicable Sweepstakes.

All disputes will be resolved under applicable U.S. laws in the County of Collin, state of Texas without giving effect to choice of law or conflicted law principles (whether of the state of Texas, or any other jurisdiction), which would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the state of Texas.

The Sponsor and the MLS Entities, as applicable, reserve the right, in their sole discretion, to cancel or suspend any Sweepstakes for any reason, including should virus, bugs, unauthorized human intervention, or other causes corrupt the administration, security, fairness, integrity or proper operation of such Sweepstakes.
