Florida Lottery needs to get a new station to show drawings in Orlando

Posted: 26 Jan 2012 09:12 AM PST

Did you tune in to WKMG-Ch. 6 at10:59 p.m. last night for the Powerball drawing?

I did. And when they went straight to news without showing the drawing, I assumed there was some delay in holding the drawing.

Not so, said Florida Lottery spokeswoman Connie Barnes.

“The Powerball drawing was conducted on time last night,” she told me this morning.

WKMG already delays the Lotto and Fantasy 5 drawings by several minutes on Wednesday and Saturday nights. Why can’t they adjust their schedule to show them live?

On the other nights, they read the results and often talk so fast it’s impossible to write the numbers down.

It’s time for the Florida Lottery to find another TV station to show the drawings.

Unbelievable: Two Quick Pick jackpot winners at the same store

Posted: 26 Jan 2012 08:51 AM PST

From time to time, there will be more than one jackpot-winning ticket purchased at the same store.

It happens when people play a set of numbers more than once.

According to the Florida Lottery, four tickets split Wednesday night’s Fantasy 5 jackpot and all were Quick Picks. The Lottery says two of them were purchased at the University BP, 10860 Miromar Outlet Drive, Estero.

What are the odds of the Lottery’s computer spitting out two winning Quick Picks at the same store?

The other winning tickets were bought in Miami and Jay.

I checked with Lottery spokeswoman Connie Barnes to see if there was a mistake, but she told me both tickets bought at the BP in Estero were Quick Picks.

Estero, by the way, is in Lee County in southwest Florida.

Powerball drawings move from Orlando to Tallahassee

Posted: 18 Jan 2012 11:06 AM PST

Goodbye Universal Studios, hello Tallahassee.

For the past two years the national Powerball drawings have been hosted by Universal Studios in Orlando.

But earlier this month they were moved to the Florida Lottery's state-of-the-art draw studio in Tallahassee.

Powerball players in 42 states, the District of Columbia and U.S. Virgin Islands can watch twice-a-week drawings on more than 160 televisions stations across the country.

"The Florida Lottery is honored to host the national Powerball drawings from our very own draw studio in Tallahassee," said Florida Lottery Secretary Cynthia O'Connell. "Hosting the drawings in Florida gives us some incredible opportunities. First, Florida is mentioned twice a week from coast-to-coast as millions of people tune-in to get their Powerball numbers. Also, the recent improvements to the game help advance the Florida Lottery's commitment to furthering educational opportunities for all of Florida's students. This is a very exciting time for the Florida Lottery and Powerball."

It its first two years as part of Powerball, the Florida Lottery generated $505 million for education programs across the state.
