The state of Michigan is home to the Motor City Detroit, which is famously the birthplace of Ford. Many are actually surprised that Lansing is the state capital and not Detroit. It is renowned for its natural resources and is a popular location for fishing fanatics. Sports teams from Michigan include the perennially unlucky NFL team Detroit Lions, who are yet to feature in a Super Bowl, NHL outfit Detroit Red Wings, and NBA's Detroit Pistons.
An area that Michigan punches above its weight is lottery - indeed, it's one of the biggest available in the United States.
Of course if you’re a Michiganian or a Michagander (depending on who you ask) you’ll probably know all of the above already.
The Michigan Lottery began in 1972. Its purpose was to help support and fund the state's public school system and educational programs - a goal that remains in-tact to this day. More than $23.4billion has been raised since its inception - all funds going towards the School Aid Fund.
According to the Michigan Lottery About Us page, more than 60% of ticket sales are pumped into prizepools - lucky ticket buyers have scooped over $17.2billion in the last ten years alone at the time of writing.
As part of the multi-jurisdictional Mega Millions make-up, the Michigan Lottery played its role in one of the most eye-watering jackpots ever to have been won in the US (Number 3 at time of writing). In January 2021, one winning ticket sold in the Kroger at Grand River and Beck in Novi scooped a sensational $1.05billion jackpot.
The odds of winning the Michigan Mega Millions jackpot stacks up to a challenging one in 302.5m.
January’s big win marks the third time in the past year and a half that a Michiganian has won one of the Mega Millions or Powerball jackpots.
Back in February 2020, Cristy Davis from Waterford grabbed a $70 million Powerball big one. About 6 months before that Phillip C from Suttons Bay scooped a huge $80 million Powerball jackpot. In October 2017, Waterford resident Jeff Blake divided a $42 million Mega Millions prize with a Rhode Island native.
