That is my understanding, pretty much true for any type of sweepstakes or other contest. If the single value is over $600 then you should get a 1099 and the IRS then definitely will be looking for it. Can't see how this wouldn't be over that amount. Regardless, even if its under that amount, you are supposed to report it.
