Mississippi Lottery generates US$16M revenue

Exceeding everybody’s expectations, the Mississippi Lottery has generated over US$16 million in revenue over the two months it has been running.

US.- Many were reluctant to pass such a gaming bill, but the proposal ultimately succeeded. Then, the Mississippi Lottery went on to exceed everyone’s expectations with major revenue in two months.

Ever since it launched back on November 25, it posted over US$16 million, mostly through scratch games.

“We are very pleased with these early results,” Thomas Shaheen, president of the Mississippi Lottery Corporation said. “Retailer and player support have been fantastic in our collective efforts to raise money for roads, bridges and education needs for the state of Mississippi.”
