Fat Tommy's Grill & Sports Bar

The excitement continues!
After another packed house at Fat Tommy's Grill &amp; Sports Bar, the Park Lawn Queen of Hearts jackpot has rolled over once again and is now over $1,030,280 for the next drawing on Wednesday, July 8, 2026.
Last week's drawing featured a standing-room-only crowd, Team USA on the big screens during the World Cup, and an incredible atmosphere as the million-dollar jackpot remained untouched. The winning ticket selected #11 – King of Hearts, earning the winner $150 and 24 entries into the next drawing, but the Queen of Hearts remains hidden.
<h3>🎉 Celebrate America's 250th with a Special Ticket Bonus!</h3>
From July 2 through July 5, Park Lawn is celebrating America's 250th birthday with a special Independence Day promotion:
🇺🇸 $50 receives $75 worth of tickets

Date: Wednesday, July 8, 2026
Time: 7:00 PM
Location: Fat Tommy's Grill &amp; Sports Bar 
4901 Cal Sag Road 
Crestwood, IL 60418
If you're present at Fat Tommy's when your ticket is drawn and you reveal the Queen of Hearts, you'll win 60% of the jackpot. If you're not present, you'll receive 50% of the jackpot.
<h3>Purchase Tickets</h3>
