    Yeah but other people have said they didn't get picked.

    Agreed, my buddy has his check returned to him about a week ago. I'm just saying the winning entries are starting to get processed.

    I'm pretty sure they divide all entries into random groups. Then each group is processed separately, with some in that group winning and some losing. That's why the timing seems so odd.

    It's a group of volunteers processing thousands of applications....there is going to be a large variance in when some people receive notices....

    I got lucky this year! I just noticed they cashed my check today. Looking forward to my first time attending this event.

    Anyone get their tickets in the mail yet, or have their check cashed? My girlfriend had her losing entry returned 2 weeks ago but I haven't heard anything from my entry.

    My check was cashed on 6/1. I have not received my tickets yet. Great Taste tweeted that most tickets should start to arrive in people's mailboxes next week.

    My check was cashed on 5/31. No tickets yet. I believe it has been mid to late June in the past.
