Idahoans Are Flocking To Local Gas Stations For Popular Game

Here in Idaho, the lottery is a very important thing. Of course, the lottery serves several purposes--and all of them are valid. First, the lottery is fun and Idahoans love to play--you could argue there is potential for being a little addictive for some, but who doesn't love money? The Idaho lottery PAYS as we have seen, time and time again--real Idahoans are winning money from the many popular games. Of course, with all of the money that it rakes in, it's important to note as well that the Idaho Lottery cashes out local schools. In fact, since 1989, the Idaho Lottery claims that it has given away over $961 million--funding public schools!

Let's talk about what everyone loves, however-- the jackpot.

Various games have various jackpots--of many different sizes. If you recall about a year ago, there were talks of the Powerball game leaving Idaho-- the public panicked and state officials made sure it did not go anywhere.

Idahoans can stop by any local gas station, grocery store, or Idaho Lottery retailer and pick one of these tickets up to take their stab at winning $1 million and it is simply one of Idaho's most popular games.  It happens once a year and only 250,000 tickets are sold-- it sells out every year.
