The Game lottery hits one year with record payouts
Massachusetts Lottery The Game reaches its first birthday and shows growing revenue from cities and towns. It has paid out about 35 million to around 216000 ticket buyers, with eleven 1 million dollar winners and dozens more across 100000 to 20000 dollar prizes. The program employs 124 staff and 3999 selling agents under a five person Lottery Commission led by State Treasurer Crane who can veto actions. New innovations boosted sales including a seller commission on tickets and a daily draw plan slated to double sales. The 12th one million dollar draw is set for March 28 in Needham.
