louisiana lottery

The big money ticket was purchased at a Circle K Store for last night's multi-state lottery drawing.

Since casinos and video poker truck stops were closed because of COVID, the Lottery had one of its best years ever.

Someone who played the Mega Millions in Youngsville has a little extra cash in their pocket this weekend.

The last time the game had a winner was in September when a ticket sold in Lafayette claimed over $800,000.

Because of open records laws, it's pretty easy to find out who the winner of any lottery prize over $600 might be in Louisiana.

The winning ticket matched four of the five white-ball numbers and the Powerball.

Saturday's Powerball game draws a $150,000 winner and a $50,000 winner on a pair of Louisiana sold tickets.

The winning ticket was sold at a Lafayette gas station on West Congress Street for last Wednesday's LOTTO drawing.

The starting jackpot for the redesigned game will begin at half of a million dollars beginning with Wednesday night's drawing.

Did you buy an "Easy 5" lottery ticket last night? If so, heads up...you may have just won a pile of money!
