montana lottery

Given last year’s fast sellout, the lottery expects another rapid purchase frenzy, particularly with the addition of a million-dollar prize and more lower-tier winners this year.

Montanans have a better shot than ever at becoming instant millionaires this year.

The Montana Millionaire game went on sale this morning at exactly 5:30 am and by a 8:16 am the tickets were completely sold out.

These tickets sell out faster than concert tickets.

For me, a more interesting question is "where are you going to live?".

There are lots of new things coming this year to the Montana Lottery and the number of winners for Montana Millionaire will be greater this year than last.

According to the numbers Montana saw a 22% increase in the total "handle" of sports bets.

If you missed out on the Montana Millionaire tickets this year, there is still some big money that can be won with Montana Lottery scratch tickets.

This year marks the 17th year of Montana Millionaire but things will be a bit different, in a good way.

I joked for a long time that I should move to Great Falls or Billings because that's where it seemed all of Montana's big lottery winners were buying their tickets. That doesn't seem to be the case anymore. One Montana town is selling decently big winning tickets every week now.

We often joke that Bozeman tends to be a black hole for "high tier" Montana Lottery winners, but that streak was broken this month as as Bozeman got a lucky winner of $75K. (A 'high tier' winner is a prize of more than $600.)
