The Texas Lottery has launched new scratch off tickets geared at Houston Texans and Dallas Cowboys fans

Someone from Tyler is $1 million richer thanks to a scratch-off ticket.

Don't worry y'all. The Powerball still has a tasty jackpot of $570 million according to USA Today, and the drawing is Saturday night.

A Brookshire Brothers Express customer is ‘in the money’ following Wednesday night’s POWERBALL drawing!

According to a press release from the Texas Lottery Commission, Ashley J. Watkins, of Lufkin, claimed a $2.5 million top prize in the Texas Lottery® scratch ticket game 100X The Cash.

According to a press release from the Texas Lottery Commission, Byron Lee Sowell of San Augustine claimed a $20 million Lotto Texas® jackpot from the Nov. 2, 2016 drawing. Sowell selected the cash value option at the time of purchase and will receive $14,653,943.78.

With a Mega Millions jackpot so huge, you might have hoped that 15 winners would share that insane amount of money, but it turns out one winner gets $540 million after Friday's drawing.  And the winning ticket didn't come from Texas.
But here's why that's a good thing.

Last week's record setting $1.5 BILLION Powerball Jackpot produced 3 grand prize winners in California, Tennessee, and Florida.  Even though nobody matched all six numbers in Texas, several millionaires were produced in the Lone Star State.

A redesigned Powerball game is debuting in Texas this October.

Take a good look at this voided Millionaires Club ticket from the Texas Lottery.  This will probably be as close as you ever get to winning a $7.5 million scratch-off prize.

In the course of just a couple of days, the Texas Lottery has produced two new millionaires in the East Texas area.
The first millionaire ticket was sold in Nacogdoches, the other in Cushing.
