Illinois lottery players may lose Powerball and Mega Millions at the end of JuneReply
There's always Wisconsin, Iowa, Missouri, Kentucky, and Indiana to provide these games for Illinois residents. Even for someone who lives in the middle of the state, Town of Chesnut, they will be no more than 100 miles away from the nearest out-of-state lottery retailer.

2 mammoth jackpots won this weekendReply

[UPDATE] D.C. woman who tried to redeem faulty ticket admitted to forging second 'winner'Reply
If you play scratch off enough you realize the number code on the front of the ticket match the code on the back. If she had been a regular buyer of tickets from one local retailer 95% of the time.

$75,000 California Lottery winner leaves with only $75Reply
, LottoMetro! LOL. Further, I think that this lottery retailer gang came up with a rather elaborate damage control saga! However, I don't think all of this gang's creative 'thinking efforts' will keep the California Lottery Headquarters from shutting them down.
