How the Oilers 50/50 became the largest raffle in professional sports - NHL.com

ROSEVILLE, Minn. (KVRR) -- If you are dreaming of becoming an instant millionaire, listen up. The popular Minnesota Millionaire Raffle is back and for the first time ever, the raffle will offer 4, $1 million prizes. They only gave away two last year. This year's game features more than 30,000 total prizes. To make room for all that winning, the Minnesota Lottery improved the odds and upped the ticket count to 1.5 million. They are available now at 3,000 lottery retailers statewide for $10 and they quickly sell-out. Winning numbers will be announced on January 1, 2027. In addition to the four $1 million top prizes, this year’s Raffle includes: • $100,000 (6) • $50,000 (6) • $25,000 (6) • $10,000 (20) • $500 (1,000) • $200 (1,100) • $100 (8,000) • $50 (20,000)
