Auburnites win drawing to catch Seahawks in Atlanta


January 10, 2013 · 4:55 PM

Two Auburn residents won tickets to the Seahawks' NFC playoff game at Atlanta on Sunday (10 a.m., Channel 13, 710 AM).

Tami Dunlap and Gary Holden's names were pulled from a large barrel at a Washington's Lottery-presented drawing at Westfield Southcenter Mall on Wednesday night.

"We get airfare to go down, we get to stay in a hotel, we get to see the game, and then we come home after we win," Dunlap told KING 5. "It is wonderful."

Dunlap said she purchased $50 worth of tickets for the drawing; Holden purchased $320 worth of tickets.

It was the second Washington's Lottery drawing for playoff tickets.
