Spin the Saucer
Official Spin Rules
NO PURCHASE NECESSARY. A purchase will not improve your chances of winning. Membership in the Abduction Club does not change the odds, add spins, or unlock different prizes.
1. Sponsor
Spin the Saucer is offered by Area 51, Inc. (2374 E Little Creek Rd, Norfolk, VA 23518) at its four Area 51 retail locations.
2. Who can play
You must be 21 or older. We may ask for ID before handing over a prize.
3. How to play
- Check in at the kiosk at any Area 51 location by entering your 10-digit phone number.
- Each person gets one free spin per calendar day, across all four locations combined. A second check-in the same day, at the same store or a different one, does not earn another spin.
- One phone number per person.
- The result is decided by the server when you spin. The wheel animation shows it; it does not decide it.
4. The odds
Every wedge on the wheel is drawn the same size so it can be read. The wedges are not sized to the odds. These are the real chances for each prize category on a single spin:
| Prize category | Chance per spin |
|---|---|
| +10 bonus loyalty points | 30% |
| Area 51 swag | 30% |
| +25 bonus loyalty points | 20% |
| Gear | 15% |
| Jackpot | 3% |
| +50 bonus loyalty points | 2% |
Live from the wheel as of November 12, 2026 at 12:59 PM (Eastern).
When a prize runs out, the odds shift. If a store has none of a physical prize left, that category leaves the wheel at that store until it is restocked, and every remaining category becomes proportionally more likely. The kiosk’s See odds button always shows the odds for that store at that moment.
We may adjust the prize mix and odds from time to time. This page always shows the current figures. See Prizes for what each category means.
5. Claiming a prize
- Bonus loyalty points are added to the Area 51 rewards account linked to your phone number.
- For any other prize, the kiosk shows a single-use code. Show it to the cashier at the same store where you spun to claim your prize.
- Prizes have no cash value, cannot be exchanged for cash, and cannot be transferred.
6. General
- We may disqualify anyone who tampers with the kiosk or uses more than one phone number to get extra spins.
- We may change or end Spin the Saucer at any time. Changes are posted on this page.
- These rules are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. Void where prohibited.
