Cody Kennedy+FollowMassachusetts Lottery faces big changesMassachusetts towns have come to rely on Lottery money, but things are shifting fast. Despite another billion-dollar profit year, scratch ticket sales are slipping and competition from casinos and sports betting is heating up. The Lottery is betting on new online games to keep the cash flowing, but officials warn that unpredictable jackpots and changing habits could shake things up. With so much local funding at stake, it’s worth asking: Should the state get more creative—or more cautious—about how it raises money from gambling? What’s your take on the Lottery’s future in Massachusetts? #News #MassLottery #Massachusetts00Share

Cory Wilson+FollowUnclaimed lottery fortunes in MassachusettsSomeone in Hyannis and another in Dorchester could be sitting on a life-changing lottery ticket—and might not even know it. Two big prizes, $100,000 and $50,000, are still unclaimed from January 2025 drawings, and the clock is ticking. If you bought a Mass Cash or Powerball ticket at West Main Gas & Diesel or Morrissey Boulevard Wines & Liquors, it’s worth digging through your old tickets. If no one claims these prizes by January 2026, the money goes back to the state. Imagine finding out you missed out—would you ever forgive yourself? Check those tickets and spread the word! #News #MassLottery #UnclaimedPrizes00Share
