raffle ticket

Numbered prize entry

A raffle ticket is a slip purchased for a chance to win a prize in a random drawing.

Each ticket typically has a number; a matching stub goes into a container for selection.

Raffles are common fundraisers for schools, churches, and charities: We bought raffle tickets at the carnival.

The winning raffle ticket was drawn at halftime.
