They should make it permanent.

Florida's been doing it for years with Grouper.

As long as they don't cancel this year Halloween raffle, I'll be happy

I think they mean that the game are here to stay as in they will not cancel the games once the initial prizes are won. They will probably wait a few months and issue them again you know what I mean

ILlotteryman,

Thanks for the heads up on the promos.

This Northstar group that took over for the state is definitely big time into marketing and self-promotion, but they've let a few things slide.

The results e-mails and payouts page on the website may or may not tell you where a winning ticket was sold and also they've stopped telling you what kind of ticket, except for one subscription woinner a few weeks ago.

The new machines can't quite do everything, for example, they won't take... [ More ]

I Like when they have special promotions, but, it seems like it's even harder to pick numbers
