New York- The Million Dollar RaffleReply
New Yorkers do play raffle games... except they do it in Pennsylvania. New York's border state of Pennsylvania has been holding their Millionaire Raffle for more than the last 20 consecutive years. They sell just 500,00 tickets, ($20 each) tickets sales run from November 4, 2025 to January 3, 2025. Odds are 125,000 to 1 to win one million dollars due to the fact they award four one million dollar prizes. I can't ever recall a Millionaire Raffle drawing where they didn't sell all 500,000

PA New Year's RaffleReply
I just checked my tickets for the pool I run at work. I bought 9 tickets on December the 6th. Four of the nine numbers I bought that day were as follows; 075829, 075830, 075832 075833. You may have noticed that 075831 is missing from that set. Well as luck would have it, it appears in the PDF file on The PA Lotteries website in the $100 winner category. So somebody somewhere won a hundred bucks with it. But here's the even tougher part. It may have been my brother that won that $100. H

Florida Lottery Holiday Millionaire RaffleReply
Additional incentive weekly drawings probably help a bit, but for many players, including myself, that's not overly appealing, since it still involves a delay. Also, a player seeking to spend $20 is mainly interested in hitting a big prize. However, an instant win (via entering code / scanning barcode on lottery website for security reasons) with odds of say 1 in 100 to win $100 instantly for a $20 raffle would be a strong incentive to buy tickets sooner and frequently. Lotteries would do bet

Discovery - New PA Raffle Game ChangeReply
Yes, I also think they will probably sell around 325,000 tickets ... that would work to keep the Raffle around in the future. They still make a small or good profit and players have one game with good odds going off four times a year ... but there still could be a mad rush for tickets in the last two weeks. Hard to know what will make the Lottery happy however ... they might still decide to pull the plug or make changes to the game. I say as long as they are not loosing money then keep the ra

Mass. raffle ticket won twice in two weeks
The lottery says it can happen, but you almost never see it. In fact, I've never to this point seen it happen. After I posted the Wild Wednesday numbers for the Massachusetts Lottery Super 50/50 Raffle yesterday, I got an e-mail from a reader asking about the number 0016847, which also appeared in the May 8th results. I wrote this morning to the Mass. Lottery and they confirmed that the rules state: Spring Super 50/50/ Raffle WILD WEDNESDAY $1,000 Bonus Drawing Winners Claim Instructio
