Park Lawn Queen of Hearts Jackpot Reaches $410K For Wednesday Drawing

OAK LAWN, IL — It was another spellbinding evening at the Park Lawn Queen of Hearts Raffle, that saw the debut of the progressive raffle’s new Bozo drum that churned the tickets for Wednesday’s drawing at At the Office Sports Bar & Grill in Crestwood. Alas, her majesty the queen was apparently still trying to drive home from southern Illinois after viewing the solar eclipse.

The queen’s treasure going into Wednesday’s drawing reached a staggering $410,000 and could crack $410,000 going into Wednesday’s drawing.

Last week Bob B. played the #26 spot, revealing the 5 of diamonds. He still goes home a winner with 24 free tickets for the April 17 drawing.

The current progressive raffle jackpot continues to set new records for Park Lawn, with 40 spots remaining, including two jokers that could reset the board. The person who finds the queen of hearts will split the jackpot 60-40 with Park Lawn if present, 50-50 if they’re playing in Facebook-land.

The impish Tim Newsome, owner of At the Office, holds the April 10th winning card.

There is no cap on prize amounts in Crestwood, so the sky's the limit. In 2018, a Queen of Hearts raffle reached $2.6 million after 40 weeks of play at McNally's Pub in Beverly-Mt. Greenwood. The winner split 50 percent of the jackpot with St. Cajetan School. Chicago Ald. Matt O'Shea (19th) pushed a special ordinance through the Chicago City Council to allow the McNally's game to continue.

You can buy tickets online, or at Park Lawn’s Oak Lawn location, 10833 Laporte Ave. Tickets can also be purchased in person at At The Office Sports Bar and Grill, 4902 Cal Sag Road, Crestwood, where Park Lawn’s progressive raffle is pulled every Wednesday at 7 p.m.

Online sales close at 2 p.m. the day of the drawing. Players can now play multiple numbers in a single online purchase. That number, along with the buyer's name and phone number, will be written down by a Park Lawn representative on all the tickets purchased in that transaction and placed into that week's drawing. Read the terms and conditions. Players must be 18 or over.

Board for the April 17 drawing in the Park Lawn Queen of Hearts
