Michigan Lottery

The winning numbers were selected Monday for the Michigan Lottery's most expensive game.

The winning numbers are available right now at:

http://www.lotterypost.com/mi-lottery-raffle-2007-06-18.asp

The lottery's Super Raffle game included 250,000 tickets sold at $50 each, with two top prizes of $2 million each.

The top prize-winning numbers were 175038, a ticket sold in Livonia, and 215994, a ticket sold in Sylvan Lake.

Twenty-five ticket holders will get $100,000 each, and 4,500 ticket holders will win $500 each.

This was the first Super Raffle drawing held, and the third raffle drawing overall held in Michigan.  The previous two raffles were both called 'Millionaire Raffle', and they were drawn in April and January of this year.

I'll just take my $500.00 win and play a couple of mega millions tickets. while $50.00 was a lot for a  lottery ticket.  its still 10 times investment! not a bad deal.  wonder if i would feel differently if I hadn't won anything?

If you check the "Related Stories" box above you can see the original story that describes the game and the quick sell out of tickets.

Congrats DetroitJazzMan!

Good luck!

I didn't win, but I still feel it was worth the ride. The new raffle goes on sale Monday at 20 bucks a ticket. I'll get at least one of those.

 A new twist this time though. They have promised to hold the drawing just one week after the tickets sell out! That beats waiting a month and a half like we did for the Super Raffle. We should know the results before the Fourth of July!

I played the original raffle last year when Michigan had the $20 tickets and my co-workers also did a pool for that one, but $50 a ticket this time?  No way!  That was just a little too rich for my blood.  Plus the wife would kill me if I told her I just spent $50 for a single ticket.

Who hoo! is all I will say.  I did not participate by buying tickets...My bet was on where all the major prize winning tickets would be...I was right...there were no major prize winning tickets above the line I drew.

JazzMan,

No need to continue wondering, I'll swap tickets with you.Wink

 Although I did not win, I still feel the odds are so much better than the other games that I will continue to participate in the raffle type games.
