Now, that's noteworthy. Did we not have a situation recently where the top prizes on a million dollar scratcher tickets were already won in some States, yet the lottery kept selling them as though those prizes were still in the running

WAIT! There are 78 million dollar winners STILL to win???

Here in Maryland any of the million dollar scratch games only have a total of 31 winners at most

cottoneyedjuoe,

A few years ago tghere was a news article about an awful lot of wiseguys (ahem!) winning Mass. lottery jackpots, or so the story went.

Nice wins for the both of them.

I'm wondering if they purchase books of tickets each time they have won.

Yes, what a coincidence they are from MA, a state with an odds-defying number of repeat scratch off winners. So many repeat winners, in fact, that the state enacted a policy to start investigating repeat winners to root out fraud. Nothing fishy here at all, I'm sure.

No, this was not from a news tip. If a story originates from a news tip, it is credited at the bottom of the story.

You're too funny.

If you ever have time go to their website and read how many million (+) dollar scratch tickets they have. It is phenomenal. As I understand it they don't get rid of a particular game until all the top prizes have been won. With their second chance lottery games on scratch tickets, just like California, you do have to be a physical resident to enter. I know because I've tried both states before.
