Lotteries know that generating buzz and good press helps sell tickets. A few big jackpots will inevitably grab headlines and get people talking about playing the lottery again. Some clever marketing stunts also create attention, like when Illinois offered a bunch of scratchers as prizes for selling the most lottery tickets. The lotteries also love announcing big winners, especially locals, hoping the good fortune rubs off. Nothing inspires people to buy lots of tickets quite like stories of regular folks suddenly living the high life on lottery winnings. The press loves it, the lottery loves it, and players love dreaming it could be them next!
