How do I know if I won a contest? FOX5 always directly contacts our winners, within 24 hours on normal business days, based on the information they provided when entering the contest.

Unfortunately, if you weren’t contacted within 24 hours on normal business days, it probably means you were not a winner, and we encourage you to keep trying.
