Jade Roper Tolbert's $1 million cash prize has now been rescinded

“It is incredibly important for us to establish that Jade’s win is nothing more than pure luck,” the couple wrote in an email to ESPN on Monday night. “No one has ever said a peep about us when we lost for 17 straight weeks.” The DraftKings contest rules allow a maximum of 150 entries per person. Both Tanner and Jade submitted 150 apiece at the cost of $25 per entry, but the rules prohibit any coordination of entries or “colluding with any other individual or engaging in any type of syndicate play.”
Three things can all be true at once in this matter: The type of coordination that the Tanners appeared to have engaged in occurs frequently, but is difficult to prove and does not get prosecuted by DraftKings; the Tanners probably violated the rules; and Jade’s entry wouldn’t be under scrutiny if the two weren’t public figures and/or hadn’t used their darned names in their entries.
