I think that over the next year as NC comes to get all of their Lottery games going.  Neighboring Lottery states such as SC and VA will probably take a hit from the convienence of having retailers around the corner or a short driving distance.  Instead of traveling to get Lottery in the next state.  I am sure that once all the games are in place for NC they will see some record money coming into the states hands for their programs.  NC will also hit the jackpot every year by the amount of tickets they sell to NC Lottery players.-weshar75
