Last year’s instant prizes have been replaced this year with an increased number of lower-tier prizes available in the raffle drawing.
All prizes are lump-sum cash payments.
The Ohio Lottery had a slight twist on ticket sales: tickets were sold in reverse order, starting with the number 500000. They would have reached 000001 if all the tickets were sold out.
Winners of the top two prizes can redeem their prizes starting Monday, Jan. 4, 2009 at the Ohio Lottery office. Other winners can cash their winning tickets at lottery retailers starting Jan. 3.
