You Live in Minnesota? You’re Out of Lotto Luck. State Lottery Shuts Down, Along with Government

I can tell you this. There were no Powerball or Mega Millions winners in Minnesota this past July 1 or 2. Because the lottery has been shut down.

Italian SuperEnalotto Jackpot Just Keeps on Growing, up to $89,000,000 in U.S.D. (64 million euros)

I love keeping track of this game…and playing it as an online lottery game…. The Italian SuperEnaLotto draws three times a week and I play it whenever I can, putting out a few euros once a week.

Isn’t this a Great Idea for a Scratch Ticket Grand Prize? Illinois Scratcher Offers Free College Tuition (and Expenses)

I don’t know who thought up this idea but it is absolutely awesome and I’d be willing to bet that lotteries around the nation will copy cat what Illinois has just done.

SEVEN Time Big Lottery Winner in Florida Plans to Tell All; He Says He has a System. Let the Buyer Beware
