If you drive by your local carryout or grocery store this weekend and you see
a long line don't immediately assume there's a rush on soda pop or bread. The
fact is there might be a rush on Ohio Lottery tickets. In an interview with Ohio
Public Radio's Jo Ingles, lottery spokeswoman Mardell Cohen explains the jackpot
right now is one of the highest in the game's history. Ohio Lottery profits have
been down during the last three or four years despite some large jackpots. Lottery
officials are hoping this huge prize will spur more interest in the game. |
