Scratch that 50/50 ticket itch by supporting local

Instead of being known as the "City of Champions", it should be "City of 50/50". Oilers allowed fans to purchase 50/50 tickets digitally and the response was record braking. We broke the WORLD RECORD of 50/50 ticket sales on Wednesday. lol I laugh because we broke a world record without even trying and it was for 50/50 tickets sold! Friday was full of technical difficulties, which inspired this post. If you couldn't get Oilers 50/50 tickets thats ok because there are lots of local charities that could use your help ( and money.lol).

Scratch the itch check out these local charities that are holding 50/50 draws in Edmonton and area.

Join Make-A-Wish to help grant a wish! You could win up to $10,000 and each ticket purchase brings hope to a child battling a critical illness.

Thank you #yeg for your incredible support of local charities today! Our 50/50 is sitting at over $14,500, thanks to you! Tickets available until Sunday. #WishesAreWaiting https://t.co/1WEKg2LsLW
