The Arkansas Scholarship Lottery on Wednesday announced the launch of a new Razorback-themed lottery ticket.
The scratch-off ticket costs $5 and includes three top prizes of $100,000. Players can win varying amounts of money up to 15 times on a single ticket. Tickets will feature either Razorbacks football, basketball or baseball.
“This year marks the 10-year anniversary of the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery, and partnering with the Arkansas Razorbacks to raise scholarship funds is the perfect way for us to celebrate,” said lottery director Bishop Woosley. “There’s no brand more important to the state of Arkansas than the Razorbacks, and we believe this will help raise more funding for scholarships all over the state.”
Officials said since its inception in 2009, the lottery has provided funding for more than half a million scholarships totaling more than $859 million. At the University of Arkansas-Fayetteville, more than $182 million has been awarded for approximately 98,000 scholarships, according to a news release.
Tickets are now available for purchase at all Lottery retailers. Arkansans must be 18 or older to play. For more information, visit MyArkansasLottery.com/Razorbacks.
