Queen A 'No Show' In Park Lawn Queen Of Hearts Raffle
OAK LAWN, IL — Grab a spade and start digging for the queen, because she still hasn’t appeared in the Park Lawn Queen of Hearts Raffle. The queen’s treasure going into next Wednesday’s drawing is at $342,840 and is growing.
David, who filled out his tickets with his own stamper, played the #42 spot, revealing the 2 of spades. He still goes home a winner with 24 free tickets for next week’s drawing, which is expected to reach $360,000 for the March 27 drawing.
Online ticket sales end at 2 p.m. Wednesday, or, go to At The Office Sports Bar & Grill, 4902 Cal Sag Road, Crestwood, where you can buy tickets in person up until the drawing at 7 p.m.

The current progressive raffle jackpot continues to set new records for Park Lawn, with 42 spots remaining on the board, including two jokers that could reset the board. The person who finds the queen of hearts will split the jackpot 60-40 with Park Lawn if present, 50-50 if they’re playing in Facebook-land.
There is no cap on prize amounts in Crestwood, so the sky’s the limit. In 2018, a Queen of Hearts raffle reached $2.6 million after 40 weeks of play at McNally’s Pub in Beverly-Mt. Greenwood. The winner split 50 percent of the jackpot with St. Cajetan School. Chicago Ald. Matt O’Shea (19th) pushed a special ordinance through the Chicago City Council to allow the McNally’s game to continue.
