I believe you may be right James1.

As I was reading Omiller's post about the $10 prize on the $20 ticket, it hit me that maybe this $50,000 prize could be multiplied by 5, as there is a '5x' and '10x' option you can win.

I dont know why they didnt explain that in the email from the Lottery...but it's all good. I will forgive them if I actually hit the '5x' on $50,000

maybe there is an option to win the top prize as 5X $50K = $250K ? or 5 matches each with $50K under for $250K total

I never scratch under the losing #'s, but the few tickets I have here all match. I have one $20 ticket with a $10 under it. Thats obviously not a prize, but we know they would have doubled it up if it won. I will pay closer attention to it. The roll I got is a 3 section game and PA breaks down the sections for the odds, so I was paying attaention to the Tic tac Toe section to make sure the prize was one that could have actually hit in that section

Exactly!

i could understand if the 50,000 prizes were all won, but it sounds like it was just plain never offered.

Very Very misleading

I wondered that before also. When I was scratcing my one roll, I was paying attention to some of the prizes o see if they existed. I don't recall seeing any, but I will have to check the few tickets I have here to see if odd prizes are there. To me that is unfair. Even if it is a loser, make them real prizes.

There is a $10 scratch off in TN, Big Money Maker that has been around a while. The other day I noticed on the scratcher itself (a losing one of course) that $50,000 was an option, in addition to the $250,000 top prize.

But on the 'remaining prizes' portion of the TN lottery site, 50K doesnt show up, whereas usually a Zero is there showing it is out. But in this case there is no 50,000 at all.

TN lottery has confirmed the only prizes are:

Free Ticket, $15, $20, $50, $100, $200, $500, $1... [ More ]
