Des Moines, Iowa — Twenty lucky people will get the chance to win up to $5 million at a live lottery game show at the Iowa State Fair this year. One of the contestants is Tamara McMahon, from Council Bluffs. The Iowa Lottery said there were over 67,000 entries for its Fair Fever promotion. This will be the first lottery game show at the Fair since 2012. Contestants were chosen through the Iowa Lottery and Iowa State Fair’s scratch game that was released earlier this year. Those who didn’t win instant prizes on their tickets could enter them into the Fair Fever promotion for a chance to compete in the show or win a Grandstand concert prize package.

Each contestant will have to get through a series of games to win the prize. All contestants will take home at least $10,000 and the finalist will win at least $500,000 and have a chance to win up to $5 million. The show will take place on Aug. 8 at 5:30 p.m. on the Grand Concourse.
