The Florida Millionaire Raffle is back!Reply
The Florida Lottery did their weekly sales update of 330394 at end-of-sales for yesterday. Since I got my ticket at beginning of sales, it looks like total sales on Thursday were less than 2,000.

Bought ticket 3284xx around 10:00 this morning. So after 109 days of sales (I didn't include today, as I bought my ticket about an hour after Raffle sales came online) the daily sales average is around 3013. That extrapolates to a potential of 367,000 in total sales.

Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?Reply
So a slow climb to a billion is arguably the game working as designed, not underperforming. Not really design, but I think MM was hoping that ticket sales wouldn't have dropped as much as they did. They're making more money on each drawing for a given jackpot, but it has now been over 18 months since their last jackpot over $1 billion. While I think they hoped for more ticket sales, I think both games are designed to occasionally produce the larger than average jackpots that results in unus

Florida Lottery's weekly sales update posted today is 347335. Subtracting last week's update number of 330394 gives 16941 tickets sold in the past week. That averages only 2420 sold per day for the week. After a total of 117 sales days so far, that averages to 2969 sold per day. There are only five sales days left. They might not even hit 400,000.

Mega Millions and Powerball RaceReply
The Mega Millions jackpot is growing faster because sales for the game are higher than Powerball sales.

248156 sold as of 05/14, so only six days instead of seven between sales updates. That averages to 2625 sold per day for the past six days. Seventy-five days into Raffle sales, the average sold per day is 3308. If the average stays in this neighborhood for the entire 122 days of sales, we're looking at somewhere around 415,000 tickets sold.

Per Florida Lottery, the Raffle sales weekly update is 190300 as of 4-24. We're 55 days in, so average daily sales are at 3460 per day, slightly under last week's 3540 average. So 3460 times 122 (total days of sales in the raffle) would equal 422,120 tickets sold. 640900 Tickets need to be sold just to fund all of the prizes.

Impact of World Cup on Lottery Sales
I don't know about Las Vegas and the Casinos across the country, but, is it fair to say that the World Cup being held in the US has had no impact on Lottery Sales? I think the jackpots increase has been consistent with the past before the games started. I thought when fans from around the globe come in and see our PB and MM billboards they would want some part of the pie. At least, I know alcohol sales are on another level

The Florida Lottery finally updated their weekly sales data. Their potential total sales figure comes to 379128. One thing I saw that I hadn't noticed before was this note on the bottom of the sales update page: *Ticket sales will continue through June 30, 2026, or until 2,000,000 tickets are sold, whichever occurs first. Uh, Florida Lottery, reality is calling...
