Ok

Now I'm home.
I wouldn't plan a trip on a wink either unless you were a local. The manager I talked to is one I've had conversation with before and while I wouldn't want to say 100% yes it will be out tomorrow, I would, based on previous conversations think the chance of it is fairly good. I wasn't able to get any info on what the prizes are going to be and since I happen to like talking to this person, didn't want to press my luck.
The virtual hat at this point is most definitely a rumor. Multiple sources looked at me like I had 3 heads

when I asked so I would put ZERO credence at this point into there being a hat.
