The contest, officially named the Detroit Red Wings Ticket Giveaway, requires participants to listen to 97.1 The Ticket on Wednesday, November 18, 2026, from 6:00 am ET to 10:00 am ET for the announcement of the cue to call. Upon hearing the cue, the designated caller(s) — as specified by the on-air personality before the cue — who reach the station contest line at 248-539-9797 will have the chance to take part in the Daily On-Air Game.
The Daily On-Air Game is called 'Listen for a Drop.' In this game, the Morning Show will randomly play a sound drop, and upon hearing it, listeners must call the station contest line.
The contest is open to all legal U.S. residents aged 18 or older who live in Michigan within the Detroit metropolitan area. A maximum of one winner will be selected and, upon verification, will receive two tickets to see the Detroit Red Wings on November 18, 2026, at Little Caesars Arena, located at 2645 Woodward Ave, Detroit, MI. The approximate retail value of the prize is $99.00, courtesy of the Detroit Red Wings.
Tickets will be emailed to the winner after verification and after all required release forms are signed. To redeem and use the prize, the winner must (i) have a valid email address and an app-enabled mobile device capable of downloading and running a third-party mobile ticketing app (e.g., Ticketmaster, AXS, MLB, etc.); (ii) install, or have already installed, such mobile ticketing app on their app-enabled mobile device; and (iii) log in to an existing user account or sign up for a free user account with the third-party operating such mobile ticketing app by completing a form with all required information, including at a minimum first name, last name, and valid email address.
The prize cannot be redeemed or used by any means other than the designated third-party mobile ticketing app for this prize. Individuals who do not have a valid email address, access to an app-enabled mobile device, and/or do not comply with the foregoing requirements will not be able to redeem or use the prize should they be selected and verified as a winner, will not receive a substitute prize, and should not enter the contest.
The winner and any guests, if applicable, must comply with any and all COVID-19 vaccination, screening, testing, safety, and related requirements imposed or required by (if applicable) the Station, the venue, event promoter, sponsors, travel providers, hotels, governmental authorities, or others in connection with the receipt, use, and redemption of the prize. Refusal to comply with all applicable COVID-19 requirements will result in forfeiture of the prize and no replacement or alternate prize will be provided.
All cancellations are deemed beyond the control of the Station and its sponsors. This includes, but is not limited to, event cancellations due to any pandemic or epidemic constituting a public health emergency, including those subject to government-mandated quarantines, travel restrictions, or stay-at-home orders. The Station and/or its sponsors shall in no way be responsible under any circumstances whatsoever for replacing, and/or for reimbursing any winner with any form of compensation for, any prize or portion thereof forfeited due to the refusal of the winner and/or their guests to comply with all applicable COVID-19 requirements and/or the cancellation of any event, nor will any alternate prize be provided.
