So there was a name on the ticket then.
If that’s the case. I’ll agree with it. The raffles I’ve seen were by number and the person in possession of the winning number wins. You could hand the ticket to anyone you wanted to.
Thank you for the added information.
True. Most tickets are payable to the bearer. That's why people who buy lottery tickets should sign them on the back in the space provided. I read an ugly story about that a long time ago.
