Factory workers of nearly 30 years to retire as Canada's biggest lottery winners By Kate Northrop Two friends made Canadian Lottery history last week when they split $80.4 million (US$59 million) in Lotto Max winnings, officially making it the largest lottery payout in the nation.

Lotto Max to undergo significant game changes, price increaseReply
Though it might be construed as hearsay since no KY lottery representative is here I'll reiterate what two different employees told me. Naturally asked about getting mechanical ball drawings back...No....it costs $400K for ball drawings/year (what?) and $100K for RNG. Second employee who travels the state told me that is the #1 complaint she receives...not happy with RNG. When we go to Canada will play their lotto, though it seems hard to win and now will get worse!

As a tracker of the Lotto Max here in Canada I find this game to be one of (if not) the hardest to win (save and apart from the odds) due to the mere fact that their so called random number generator is just an animated fancy looking video. What's really needed is the use of a mechanical ball drawing machine which of course is no longer their preferred mode of selecting numbers. With that being said $90 million is nothing to sneeze at considering its allllll TAX FREE! Good luck to

Good luck to all our friends across the border. Side Note : This is not backed by any data. I am more sure if we have people on the US side who would cross the border to play the Lotto Max in Canada, and/or if we have people on the Canadian side that are drawn to the US games. Wondering what the impact of the changes would be if any of the above assumptions is true.
