Jar and Pulltab Ticket Rules

Big Top Bingo offers “jar ticket” and “pulltab” games with prizes of up to $600 on the single pull of a tab. It’s fun, exciting, and easy to learn how to play. Tickets and pulltabs are sold by a knowledgeable operator who will answer any questions you have. Here are the basic rules:

  • You must be 21 years or older to purchase or handle pulltabs.
  • Cash purchases only – no credit.
  • Anytime a pulltab game is added, tickets must be thoroughly intermixed, and we reserve the right to intermix the tickets at anytime.
  • No ticket operator or player may selectively choose tickets from the receptacle.
  • A player may purchase up to 250 tickets plus any winning tickets redeemed. A ticket operator may not sell additional tickets to that player until the tickets previously purchased have been opened. In fairness to all players, we may limit sales to $5 increments when a ticket game is being sold out.
  • As a courtesy to other players, please do not open tickets at the ticket operator’s station.
  • All winning tickets must be redeemed within 15 minutes of purchase – or tickets will be void.
  • A ticket operator cannot pay a prize to any player who is redeeming a winning ticket that has left the physical area of the gaming site – including the restrooms and parking lot.
  • Personnel of Big Top Bingo and Plains Art Museum are prohibited from buying or opening tickets.
