There's big money on the line this month in the first-ever Hockey Harvest Lottery in support of player scholarship funds.

All five Saskatchewan WHL teams have partnered with Great Western Brewing to host the 50/50, including the Moose Jaw Warriors.

Voice of the Warriors, James Gallo says the pot is already huge and is still growing.

"It's grown over the last couple of days. $262,000 and growing. So it's a massive pot and the winner takes half. Could you imagine just a couple of days before Christmas, getting a 6-figure cheque?"

Tickets are going for 1/$20, 5/$50, 20/$100, 150/$500, or 500/$1000. The deadline to buy is Dec. 20, and the draw will be made on the 21st.

"It's a great Christmas present for someone," says Gallo. "Co-workers and businesses could even pool together to get more tickets."
