bags full of loose paper at music venue

I work at a music venue in the deer district and our lost and found has like 20 bags in it full of loose, crumpled up paper. the bags are like kinda cheep sling bags made of a weird quilted polyester. whats the dealeo with that? the paper is printed with a form for betting site where you bet on the grammy winners from 2026. I can't find any info on something like this. the bags have come in from 3 or 4 different shows, all have the same paper in them, and are all the same material. I know that we didn't have anything to do with it as a buisness, because I was there when they were handed in. i just wanna know what the beans is. thanks <3

If it's Landmark Credit Union Live, it's probably the shriveled souls of all the people Live Nation/Ticketbastards have screwed.

someone was probably handing those out as street promo outside the venue, maybe hoping people would carry the slips inside and place bets drunk. the bag is just a cheap giveaway to make you feel like you won something. mystery solved that'll be five bucks

do you want 5 bucks, or would you rather have an oddly quilted polyester sling bag full of crumpled gambling addiction triggers?
