DES MOINES, Iowa - The new year has just begun, but the Iowa Lottery is already thinking about basketball tournaments in March! A new lottery promotion offers players the chance to win tickets to see all the action at the men's and women's conference basketball tournament in March in Kansas City!

The Cyclone™ Sizzler promotion runs through midnight on Jan. 27. Players can enter their nonwinning Hot Lotto Sizzler tickets through the lottery's Web site at www.ialottery.com. Players can key in the serial number from their tickets to enter the promotion. Players must keep all tickets they enter. Eligible nonwinning tickets must be purchased from Jan. 3 through Jan. 26 for lotto drawings ending no later than Jan. 26. The drawing for the Cyclone™ Sizzler promotion is Jan. 29. The first winner drawn will be given the option to choose the men's or women's package. The second winner will receive the other prize package.

The winners of the Cyclone™ Sizzler promotion will receive four tickets to all tournament games, hotel accommodations, $250 travel allowance and $500 cash. Both trip winners will also be offered tickets to either the Iowa State men's or women's basketball game on Feb. 9 at Hilton Coliseum in Ames where they will be recognized and presented with their trip to Kansas City.

The Hot Lotto Sizzler is a new feature in the Hot Lotto game. For an extra $1 per play, players can multiply their Hot Lotto prizes (except the jackpot) by three with the Hot Lotto Sizzler.

Since the Iowa Lottery's inception in 1985, more than $2.1 billion has been awarded in prizes and more than $1.1 billion has been raised for state programs.
