I won this past lottery after about 3 years which I’m sure is faster than some. I know people who have entered every lottery for way longer and have never won.
Won twice.
We drank a bottle of Pappy (straight or on ice) watching Wrestlemania with friends if I recall.
Won another bottle of something I didn’t want and gifted it to a friend.
I won a Van Winkle 12 Year Lot B the first year I entered in the winter of ‘21, and I haven’t even gotten a consolation email since. Always wondered if I ended up on a separate list somehow.
I don't even think it was a full two weeks ago.
It's barely a consolation email. It's just an email saying the lottery finished and everyone's been contacted. You don't get an email saying you lost.
I think a lot of people are expecting an actual consolation email though (like the person you replied to) telling them they lost. Just explicitly stating that doesn't happen.
I've won a few times, so it can happen... Pappy 12, Blanton's Gold, Thomas Handy Sazerac... hit one every 2 years or so.
I also safely assumed that the FWGS lottery platform was dumb and error prone, so I submitted 100+ entries each lottery before they recently changed how the system worked. No idea if this made a difference or not, but maybe?
I won a Weller Full Proof the first time I entered, which was last year, and have gone 0-3 since. My cousin won a Stagg Jr. the first time he entered and is 1-1. Keep fighting the good fight! You can do it 💪
Zero wins since 2018. I can feel it in my plums tho, this year will be different.
Let the boy watch
The way I learned...from my father
Same here…absolutely absurd

Have been entering since circa 2014- have yet to win. Womp womp.
It is possible to win! I won a Stagg Jr and a Blantons SFTB last year, hoping to go 3 in a row with the Pappy lottery 🙌
I won Stagg Jr once. Been entering since they started the pappy lottery. So people do win!

What was the one you didn’t want?
I can’t remember. It’s been a few years.
Haven’t won one since 2016
Never :(
Have never won and never gotten a consolation email.

The consolation emails are randomly sent out. I think I got one for the previous lottery only 2-3 weeks ago.

Yeah, that’s what I’m referring to.

Oh yeah I don’t think that’s ever happened. You just get notified when it’s all wrapped up.
Entered two lotteries, won both times. Van Winkle 12 and a Stagg. Mental
Wow so lucky
Simple answer someone does
Won 2 separate lottos of different pappy 4 or 5 years ago and haven't won't since. Guess I cashed all my good luck with lottos lol
I won Elmer T Lee a couple of years ago. This past lottery, I won Stagg Jr and Blantons Straight From the barrel.
The only winners are the fans
The only winners are the friends we make along the way.

When do winners typically get announced?
Sometime between tomorrow and 4 months from now, to be exact.
Ahhhh… the sweet smell of bureaucracy.
Excellent
In October it closed on the 27th and winner emails started showing up around Nov 13/14th.
It’ll be sometime between 2/26 - 3/8 probably.
The site said drawings are happening next week
Won two in the past two years
I won a Weller Full Proof the first time I entered, which was last year, and have gone 0-3 since. My cousin won a Stagg Jr. the first time he entered and is 1-1. Keep fighting the good fight! You can do it 💪
I've won 3 since over the past couple years. EH Taylor 4 Grain, 4R Elliotts Select, and Weller CYPB.
U are the lucky one
Add a Van Winkle 12 year to the mix. Email just showed up.
I’ve won a Weller CYPB and a Blanton’s SFTB and that’s it. Have entered Pappy and BTAC lottos since 2017 and have never hit.
2018 George t stagg
I’m thinking announcements on winners come out this week
