"New Arkansas lottery director Bishop Woosley says an increase in profits he's seeking won't come at the expense of prizes paid to scratch ticket players." -------------------- Whew! So glad to know that our scholarships aren't going to interfere with the scratch-off prizes. That was a close one!

I would love to see an Arkansas exclusive draw game that does not start at $5 per ticket and held only once monthly. Something similar to to the Texas Two-Step or Lotto Texas, or Louisiana's Lotto or Easy 5, the jackpots are much larger and increase after each drawing if there's no winner. The Arkansas 50-50 is ok, but the tickets are $5 for a small jackpot compared to the others mentioned above, and Powerball and MegaMillions has such high odds that they aren't all that attractive. Just a thought from someone who supports the lottery from a distance because the "draw" games aren't all that appealing!
