If he was running a raffle all on his own just to give the PROCEEDS to ICRF, then the fact remains that he's actually not legally allowed to run a raffle as a for-profit business, since it is not apparent where and what 501(c)3 organization he directs, and ICRF finds themselves in a sticky situation of being associated with a less-than-legal raffle, involving themselves in it directly by publicly drawing the winning numbers. I think that's what's under consideration here.
I do understand that, and have read the thread. My only confusion is that Ty said in his facebook post about that if he didn't produce an albino tegu, the $3,000 would come from his pocket, not from the ICRF
