Lotto to offer super-size jackpots
The Florida lotto wants you to super-size that Lotto ticket.
Starting March 2, the lotto will offer $2 and $3 Lotto tickets that can win additional jackpots with the same six numbers as a $1 ticket. Players matching all six numbers with a $2 ticket can win the basic jackpot plus up to $10-million. Those with a $3 ticket can win the basic jackpot, the $10-million, plus another $15-million
The Lotto is 20-years-old and revenues have trended down since the early 1990s. "We felt it was moment to freshen it up,” says lotto spokeswoman Jacqueline Barreiros. "It’s a jackpot-driven game. The goal is to find a way to drive up the jackpot for (the benefit of) education.”
