Q108 shall be entitled to rely in good faith, upon any documents presented by the representative seeking to collect the prize in lieu of the winner. Q108 shall not be liable for any claim by any winner for damages incidental thereto.

8. All (Station) contests are open to all eligible Tennessee and Kentucky residents 18 or over (unless otherwise specified). Contestants must possess a valid form of identification bearing the picture of the contestant acceptable to Q108 that will be presented to Q108 and accepted before the prize is awarded.

Employees of Q108, 5 Star Radio Group, and its ultimate parent company, Saga Communications, Inc., their advertising agencies, affiliates, contest sponsors, employees and immediate families of each, and employees of all media of mass communication within a one hundred mile radius of the Q108 main studio are not eligible to win any contest. Immediate family includes the spouse, great-grandparents, grandparents, parents, brothers, sisters, children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren of the employee and his/her spouse.

12.

13. As a licensee of the FCC and a trustee of the public airwaves, Q108 reserves the right to interrupt and/or discontinue any contest or promotion (and not award the offered prize) at the discretion of Q108 management if world events, the national mood, or public safety so warrant.

14. Q108 reserves the right to amend the rules to any contest at any time. The judge’s decision is always final.

16. Q108 shall have no responsibility for contestant’s inability or failure to participate, failure to win or claim any prize based on malfunction or difficulties with telephone, cell phone, texting, email, or internet access, or any other circumstances in any contest beyond Station’s control.

17. The following are specifically related to E-contests and E-Mail Club promotions on www.Q108.com: 
    a. All appropriate information in required fields must be filled out correctly and completely or you will be disqualified. 
    b. To win a prize you must reside within the listening area of Q108
as defined at the exclusive discretion of Q108 management. 
    c. Any problems with the internet or email are not Q108’s responsibility. 
    d. Contestants who register to participate on our website may be required to produce a printed copy of proof of registration before being allowed to participate in the contest. 
    e. Due to the nature of our programs that are heard on-line over the internet, contests may not be heard at all. Contests heard on the radio station’s internet audio stream may be slightly delayed from the time the contests are heard on the broadcast station, and will be running behind the broadcast signal. Thus, all contests heard are delayed. This delay can last for as much as 30 seconds or more. This means that when Q108 contests are played that require a specific caller to telephone the radio station (such as “Caller number 8 when you hear the sound effect”), listeners to the on-line audio stream may be at a disadvantage in participating over those listeners who hear the contests on-air.

18. A copy of these rules are available during business hours at the Q108 studios at 1640 Old Russellville Pike, Clarksville, TN 37043 and online at www.Q108.com.

This contest is void where prohibited by law.

Winners will be notified by email. If a winner is unreachable after seven (7) days, or if that winner is unavailable for prize fulfillment, an alternate winner will be selected. If Q108 cannot find an eligible winner for the prize, that prize will not be awarded.

Odds of winning depend on the number of eligible entries received.

Automated voting of any kind is not allowed. Detection of said automated voting will lead to votes being voided.

Only one registered account per voter. If multiple accounts are detected for a single voter, they will be disabled and votes disqualified.

Q108 reserves the right to substitute any prize with another prize of equal or greater value.

Q108 reserves the right to restrict the local winners to only persons whose primary residence is within a 60 mile radius of the affiliate's' office.

Contest entrants agree to abide by the terms of these Official Rules and by the decisions of the contest commissioners, which are final on all matters pertaining to the contest.

Entrants further grant to Q108 the right to use and publish their proper name and state online and in print, or any other media, in connection with the Contest.

Q108 reserves the right to use any and all information related to the Contest, including information on contestants obtained through the contest, for marketing purposes or any other purpose, unless prohibited by law.
