The dream of many golfers is to make it to The Masters. I am not talking about playing in The Masters but rather getting those tickets that have become the great white whale of tickets in all of sport.
The Masters waiting list is closed and the lottery gets more play than Powerball. If you’d like to get to Augusta National you may have a better chance of earning an invite than you do of getting selected in the lottery.
Yes, there’ always tickets for sale if your willing to part with major…pardon the pun, major bucks. A recent check shows a Monday practice round for $440…and get ready to start at $1500 for an early tournament round. Needless to say that’s a bit out of reach for most of us.
But all hope is not lost. There’s still a chance left for you and a buddy to make it down Magnolia Lane and revel in all the glory that is The Masters.
Fanthropic is a website that specializes in lotteries for many different sporting events with the proceeds going to a specific charity. And they are currently offering a package to The Masters. It includes two tickets to Thursday and Friday along with airfare,hotel and even a welcoming party with the Wheels Up crew.
All that for only ten bucks or twenty five if you want to increase your odds and the proceeds will be going to the American Cancer Society.
Hey, no one is immune from the effects of cancer and plenty of us are already giving to some charity so why not take a chance and maybe get to Amen Corner while helping fight this horrid disease.
It’s a win/win as they like to say. You could end up at The Masters and if you don’t you can feel good about helping out society. And that’s not a bad thing.
Fanthropic offers plenty of sports related lotteries, click here.
