Would expect many raffle tickets to be last minute stocking stuffers, also bought with money received as Christmas gifts so a rush on them the last week. Good luck to all holding those tickets or contemplating buying them

Let's just say for discussion sake as of the drawing cutoff time on December 31st they have sold 450,000 tickets. That would leave 50,000 tickets unsold, those numbered 450,001 to 500,000. Do they still do the drawing on the December 31st? If so do they just make it from a pool of 450,000? Are all the prizes still offered

I agree, Dumars 798--- They will not sell all 500,000 tickets by 12/31.

However, they will not have the drawing until all are sold, so who knows how long that will be...

Does seem like the raffle lotteries offer the best odds; probably why they sell out so fast.

Georgians tend to be frugal.

24 days left and still more than 250,000 tickets remain.

I wouldn't call that going fast , but the GA lottery officials might.
