Arkansas Lottery Launches Million-Dollar Ticket December 4

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (News release) - Just in time for Christmas, the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery (ASL) will begin selling five new scratch-off tickets on Tuesday. One of those games could turn four lucky Arkansans into instant millionaires.

The $20 Ultimate Millions ticket includes four top prizes of $1 million with more than $35 million in prizes overall and more than $16 million in prizes of $100 or more.

“With only a $20 investment, the new Ultimate Millions ticket offers a chance for players to win
life-changing prizes. Since our inception, we have had 65 Arkansas Lottery-made millionaires, and we can’t wait to see who’s next,” said Bishop Woosley, ASL director. “Who doesn’t love a chance to become a millionaire?”

Additionally, the Lottery is launching a first-of-its-kind $10 ticket called “$50 or $100!” because
it is loaded exclusively with $50 and $100 prizes. The odds of winning $100 are one in 27.75 with the odds of winning $50 or $100 better than one in nine. There are 34,720 top prizes.

Other instant tickets launching Tuesday include the $5 Cash Multiplier with a top prize of $100,000, the $3 Bingo Extra with a $75,000 top prize and a prize multiplier box, and the $1 Blackjack ticket with a $3,000 top prize.

Lottery products are not sold to anyone under the age of 18, and Woosley encourages adults to
gift responsibly during the holiday season.

“It’s our duty to urge everyone to play responsibly, and keep lottery games entertaining and safe,” Woosley said. “Gifting lottery tickets to people under 18 is not appropriate.”
