Montana Lottery’s annual Montana Millionaire has sold out all 500,000 tickets in less than three hours, promising a quarter-million-dollar prize for one lucky winner. The drawing is set for December 2nd, with four $1 million grand prizes to be drawn later in December. The excitement around the sales of the tickets is evident, with long lines forming at convenience stores and the parking lot of a local lounge full before dawn. Changes this year include more instant win prizes and the addition of an extra million-dollar grand prize, bringing the total to four. Previous winners hail from various cities in Montana, with last year’s winning ticket sold in Great Falls. The Montana Lottery aims to maximize revenue for the state, with proceeds going towards scholarships and the general fund. Overall, the Montana Millionaire offers a chance for residents and visitors alike to win big this holiday season.
