Winning the big money in the Texas Lottery normally requires luck getting the same numbers as they are announced. But, there is a different way to win.
Texas players are hoping for a little luck on Friday the 13th with the $1.35 billion Mega Millions jackpot, the second-largest jackpot prize in game history and the 4th largest in U.S. lottery history.
Wow, I saw this info hit my email inbox today and it made me chuckle a bit because I realized that I have been a radio guy longer than the Texas Lottery has been in existence.
While the upcoming football season may have a different look than previous years, the same great partnership between the Texas Lottery and the Dallas Cowboys is being renewed for a 12th consecutive year.
Can you imagine having a ticket in your pocket worth $1 Million, then losing it? Someone out there purchased a quick pick in El Paso back in January and either lost it or forgot about it and now, that winning million-dollar ticket is about to expire. Chances are slim that anyone around here made that purchase but you never know. If you were in El Paso back in January... just saying.
Okay, I'll admit it, I'm jealous but very happy that a Texarkana resident has claimed a second-tier Mega Millions prize worth $1 million for the drawing on March 24. The ticket was purchased at Wendy's/Exxon located at 3737 New Boston Road.
