Supporting Blue Demon Student-Athletes

Half of every 50/50 pot supports all DePaul student-athletes. Every ticket advances our Vincentian mission and gives Blue Demons the resources to compete and grow on the court, in the classroom and across Chicago.

How It Works

1. Buy your tickets. Buy online on game day starting at 10 a.m. CT, or from our sellers at Wintrust Arena through halftime.

2. Watch the pot grow. Watch the pot grow all game. Sales close at the final buzzer, and one winning number is drawn.

3. Check your numbers. The winning number is posted on our Winners page within 48 hours. One winner takes half the pot, and you don't need to be present to win.
