Hmm, that's an equally good prospect, letting Rhode Island start offering Classic Lotto.From Bridgeport to Newport, it's Southern New England's Classic Game.

jag:I would support a NE Lotto game, assuming Classic Lotto, MA Mega$.uck$, and Tri-State Megabucks would be retired. Hot Lotto (New Hampshire) would stay, although I don't see much of a future for it unless Oklahoma joins.

Good idea, CO.New England Lotto. It could catch on, mirror image of the Tri-State coalition.

Dropping two numbers in Classic Lotto would result in the same jackpot odds as two other New England games, one with a bonus ball; the other still annuity-only. Maybe CT should partner with Rhode Island and offer the 6/44 in the Ocean State.

Ok, a rolling jackpot would be great, starting at $100,000!Who knows if CT would give the players even more

I was thinking of a minimum $100,000 jackpot. I just never put it in there. I just realized that with the long streaks Cash5 has without winners, a jackpot could end up growing to huge proportions. Besides, I doubt anyone will recieve less than $100,000 considering there's hardly ever more than 1 winner. This isn't Take Five.

Yes, yes, yes! Playslips for Pick 3 4, couldn't agree more! I don't know if it would change peoples behavior, but it gets irritating to stand in line listening to $1 backup on 888, $1 backup on 525, etc. etc. you almost fall asleep in line!CT has a fantastic $100,000 payout on the 5/35 game. If they messed with that I'd think more than twice about playing.
