AUSTINTOWN TWP., Ohio - The next Queen of Hearts drawing will take place at Barry Dyngle's on Sunday. If no one wins then,  the drawings will continue to be held on Sundays until someone does take home the jackpot.

Following speculation that the drawing would be moved to another location, owners of the business announced that the event will remain at the restaurant on South Raccoon Road and the person possessing the ticket picked from the barrel will not need to be present at the drawing to win the entire jackpot.

The drawing for the prize, which has now surpassed $1 million, will be held at 7:30 pm.

The restaurant owner postponed the usual weekly drawing this past Wednesday because of concerns that included the ever-growing number of people who are required to be present in order to win the entire prize.

The owner met Thursday night with Austintown officials to discuss how to make the drawing safer and easier for everyone involved.

"I think if people use common sense, the simple fact is we are looking to reduce the size of the crowd and you know what, you don't have to be there..there will be a lot of people who stay home Sunday night and watch football," said Austintown Trustee Jim Davis.

"It's a learning curve every week is something new, and I think with the fact of not having to be present will curtail some of those crowds and I think it will help the congestion," said Owner of Barry Dyngles Shawn Hannon.

Bar owners say there will be increased security, additional waste receptacles along Raccoon Road during the drawings.

Only eight playing cards remain pasted to a board at Barry Dyngle's.  If the person whose ticket is drawn flips over the Queen of Hearts, they'll take home the million dollars, plus any additional money brought in by ticket sales between now and the drawing.
