$70 million Michigan Powerball winner says lottery winners should be able to remain anonymousReply
The lottery knows about scammers and the increased burden on law enforcement caused by revealing names but they don't care because someone else has to deal with that. States that let winners stay anonymous don't seem to have problems increasing sales or selling tickets. Please back your assertion with facts about how much identifying winners increases sales. Michigan went anonymous for state games in 1988/89 and they have had increasing sales almost every year after that! Identi

Virginia sailor sets new record for largest instant lottery prize won online in U.S.Reply
Wow Congrats! I went to https://www.valottery.com/ and checked out the game and the current jackpot is about $755k Those games look better than the online games here. Michigan awarded 1 $1,000,000 prize for the games here when they first started and since then they have not payed out more than $250k with the top prize on some of the games now being $500k and there is one prize higher but nobody is ever going to win that if you check out the odds for that. https://www.michi

Michigan man wins record $503,254 Club Keno prizeReply
Next town over there is a fast order restaurant that sells Keno. Three lottery machines are there where you can play and a huge monitor displaying the results as they occur.

If you click the down arrow under retailer it will sort by retailer.

One ticket sold in Florida is sole winner of $1.58 billion Mega Millions jackpotReply
Including duplicate tickets, 57% percent of all the MM combos were sold so based on sales, only one winning ticket was expected. The July 29, 2022 $1.28 Billion jackpot had twice as many tickets sold. It's possible sales for the billion dollar jackpots are down because there is usually only one winning ticket. Both Michigan and Massachusetts discontinued games where when jackpots reached a prize level, the excess money was paid out to secondary prizes. It wasn't the same as having multiple j

$820 MILLION: Massive Mega Millions drawing set for TuesdayReply
Well at least they don't tax lottery winnings in California so it is better than someone in New York winning. I hope it is in Michigan or one of the states that don't tax lottery winnings. If it is California I hope it is one of my relatives . Then I might go to California for my first time ever
