  If you go to RESULTS at the top of the page click on it, click on the State of TN.  It will then give you all the different drawing for the state for that day & a history of the drawings.  If you scroll down to the Pick 5 game & Click on the Pick 5 icon - it will bring up some stats on the Pick 5 - one of these is the Drawing Method - which in this case is Computer Random number generator (RNG).  A computer picks the winning numbers.  Most states use the Mechanical Lottery Ball Machine.  MO is another state that uses the RNG to pick there Show Me Cash (pick 5 game).  This is one reason I ran the listing for TN. - to see if there were combos & patterns like the States that used Mechanical Lottery Ball Machines.  It shows me that there are combos & patterns in every Pick 5 & Jackpot games.  Nothing is truly random unless you are in a vacuum where nothing can affect the outcome.

   

  TN web page for the lottery shows on the Pick 5 page that the last drawing will be on 10/01/10.
