Million Dollar Raffle Is Almost Sold Out

With the Grand Prize Drawing just days away for The Rhode Island Lottery’s Million Dollar Raffle Game, the sales are picking up. With almost 80% of the tickets already sold, players must act fast to buy their ticket.

The Million Dollar Raffle Game launched on October 4, 2009, and offers the best odds of winning $1 million in New England. The Grand Prize Drawing will take place at 11p.m. on New Year’s Eve. All Million Dollar Raffle tickets must be purchased by 9 p.m. that night if the game is not already sold out.

The winning number for the million dollar top prize will be announced at 11p.m. on New Year’s Eve at the Lighthouse Stage in Twin River and on WPRI-TV, Channel 12. In addition to the million dollar top prize, there are multiple prizes of $10,000 and $1,000 guaranteed to be won, but will not be televised that night due to time constraints.

All of the Million Dollar Raffle winning ticket numbers can be found on www.rilot.com after the drawing. Players can also check their tickets at any Rhode Island Lottery Retailer to find out if they’re a winner. The Rhode Island Lottery reminds all players to sign the back of their tickets and keep them safe until the drawing.
