The Tennessee Lotto 5 jackpot climbed to an estimated $1 million after Wednesday night’s drawing.

“Excitement is building about the first in-state million-dollar jackpot,” said Rebecca Paul, CEO and President of the Tennessee Lottery.

“When jackpots reach record levels, we raise even more dollars for education.”

In addition to the $1 million jackpot estimated for Friday night’s Lotto 5 drawing, the Powerball jackpot continues to swell. Since there was no grand-prize winner in that game after last night’s drawing, the jackpot is estimated at $83 million for Saturday night’s drawing.

Although no player matched all five numbers correctly in Wednesday night’s Lotto 5 drawing, 108 players matched four numbers to win $189 each, while 3,084 players matched three numbers correctly and will collect $10 each.

In the Powerball drawing, also held on Wednesday night, there were 33,105 winners who purchased tickets in Tennessee.

Lotto 5 drawings are held on Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights at 10:34 p.m. CST (11:34 p.m. EST); Powerball drawings are held on Wednesdays and Saturdays at 9:59 p.m. CST (10:59 p.m. EST).

Yeah, but I doubt it would ever hit a million.

Wow now I see why so many folks say that TN should be part Lotto South.  I have not seen a 1 million jackpot in a long time as the starting lottery jackpot.

I definitely want Tennessee to be part of Lotto South.  It will save me trips across the border.  Last draw on the [Lotto 5] I matched 4 of 5.  Man!!! I was close.  Payed out $189 though.  Now a Million bucks at stake with 575,000:1 odds... it will probably be a very long time before we see a jackpot like this again.  I just hope it isn't won by 2 or more people and I hope the 1 is me...

Hehe

I just got home from a usually quite retailer and people have already lined up out of the door.  It's going to hit tonight and who know it may be underestimated???

Just as I feared, it was hit by 2 people.  Oh well, I didn't have to split the 10 bucks I won with anyone. HeHe.
