Tonya and Sarah Maerker have a family tradition of participating in raffles to help others. They never expected to win, but rather focused on supporting a good cause. The mother-daughter duo almost missed an opportunity to enter the Titans 50/50 raffle, with Tonya initially walking past it. However, they eventually decided to buy a ticket.

Further details about their experience are available in a full report. The Maerkers had been gifted tickets to a Tennessee Titans game, where they encountered the raffle.

Their decision to participate in the raffle led to a happy memory, although the specifics of the outcome are not provided here.
