Edmonton Oilers foundation draws winning $14.1-million ticket

The Edmonton Oilers foundation has drawn the $14.1-million 50/50 prize.

It took nearly a month but after a plethora of technical difficulties, the winner will finally get their dues.

The total raffle for the Aug. 7 game was $14,176,850 and the person with ticket number A-37051557 will be taking home $7,088,425.

While they did their best, the site crashed and causing slow loading times, geo-location errors and duplicate purchases of tickets.

The foundation tried as hard as they could to update the sites ahead of the games, but it didn’t work. The foundation gave time for refunds to be issued and the draw was finalized today.
