How To Enter The Billings Firefighters Local 521 Gun Raffle

Mark and Paul, your Breakfast Flakes, are involved with two big community-wide gun raffle fundraisers each year. In the Spring, it's 45 Guns in 45 Days, which supports American Legion baseball in the Billings area.

And in September, the guys are proud to support the Billings Firefighters Local 521 Benevolent Fund gun raffle, drawing lucky winner names from the hopper every weekday morning on Cat County 102.9.

$25 Gun-A-Day Raffle tickets are available now, until sold out, at Scheels in Shiloh Crossing, or can be purchased from any Local 521 Billings firefighter. Only 3,000 tickets will be sold, so participants have decent odds of winning a new firearm.

Tickets are limited to Montana residents and our neighbors in North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, and Idaho. Weekend winners will be drawn and announced on Mondays. We will update the list with the winners' names each weekday.

PICTURES: Here's What the Cast of 'The Dukes of Hazzard' Look Like Today!

The Dukes of Hazzard was more than just a popular TV show. It was a television phenomenon that launched several of its cast members into sex symbol status.

Decades after the show debuted in 1979, the cast members look very different today, but they've held up remarkably well.
