Texas Lottery
May Lose Bonus Number
As reported by the WOAI:
"Lotto Texas players might be saying bye-bye
to the bonus ball.
"One of the proposals being floated by the
Texas Lottery Commission is to eliminate the new
five numbers and bonus ball matrix and return to
a 'pick six of fifty' format for the Lotto game,
which is the flagship of the Texas Lottery.
"'I don't think that has been discussed specifically,
but I think we're discussing all formats for the
matrix, to determine what would be the best, to
make it exciting, and also to generate revenue for
the state of Texas,' Texas Lottery spokesman Bobby
Heith told 1200 WOAI news.
"Sales of Lotto Texas tickets have declined
nearly 40% since the new 'bonus ball' matrix was
introduced two years ago…"
