The Georgia lotto is one of the most successful lotto commissions in the country. This is due in part to the fact that by law all proceeds of the state lottery are required to be used for the sole purpose of funding various education programs. For instance, the GA lotto funds a college scholarship program called the HOPE scholarship. This program allows any Georgia high school student with a B average or better to attend any state college or university for free. Because of the good cause, you can play the various Georgia lotto games available with a good conscience.



Playing the Lotto South Lottery Game

Lotto South is one of the most popular Georgia lotto games. The game entails choosing five numbers that range anywhere between one and forty-nine. These numbers can repeat and they can be in any order. Prizes are awarded for matching three, four or five numbers, but these are significantly lower than the prize for matching six in Lotto South. If you have six winning lotto numbers, you can win millions of dollars. You can watch Lotto South drawings on television on Wednesday and Saturday nights, and you can also check for winning lotto numbers on the internet via the Georgia lotto official website.

Playing the Georgia Lottery Fantasy Five Game

Fantasy Five is another GA lotto game. With Fantasy Five, you pick five numbers between one and thirty-nine. If these numbers are chosen in any order, you win the prize. If you only get two numbers correct, you win another free Fantasy Five ticket. If you get three or more numbers correctly, you win a cash prize. The amount of the prizes fluctuates depending on how many tickets are sold for the particular period. Drawings are held every night of the week, and they are televised on several different television stations throughout the area.

The Georgia Mega Millions Lotto

Georgia also participates in the popular multi-state Mega Millions Lotto. This game involves choosing a total of six numbers in order to win the jackpot. Because the game is so big, the cash prize can be enormous, especially if it has been rolled over several times if no one has won.

Buy Georgia Lottery Tickets

Georgia has one of the few state lotteries where all the money earned goes to education. If you want to buy these or any other lottery tickets, simply log onto your official state website. These sites explain how to purchase tickets, and often times tickets can be purchased online so you can play most state lotteries from the comfort of your own home. You can also refer to official state websites for custom lottery news. Many sites offer lottery number generators to help make your lottery number picking easier for you. If you would like to purchase your tickets in person, you can also visit a local lottery terminal. No matter how you choose to purchase your tickets, or which tickets you choose to buy, you're bound to have some fun!
