Can You Name That Meat? New Jersey Lottery Launches Unique New Scratch-Off Ticket, The Jersey Debate
TRENTON, NJ (April 28, 2023) – Can you name that classic New Jersey breakfast meat? For over 100 years, New Jerseyans have been at odds over the name of this _____-egg-and-cheese sizzling sandwich meat. For just $5, players can attempt to settle the debate, at least temporarily, by uncovering PORK or HAM symbols to win prizes up to $200,000. Salt-pepper-ketchup not included.
This hot new ticket hits stores on Monday, May 1. Be on the lookout for other ticket tie-ins throughout the state, including local deli and food truck partnerships, giveaways, and more. Additional contests and prizes will be available to our VIP Club members and social media followers.
“This is a fun and lighthearted way to celebrate a uniquely New Jersey debate,” said Executive Director James Carey of the New Jersey Lottery. “We know that people in this state are passionate about their sliced pork naming preferences, and we hope this ticket will bring some joy and excitement to players across the state.”
Stop by your local deli and grab this new ticket alongside your favourite breakfast sandwich. Who knows? You might just settle the debate once and for all.
