The New York state lottery was first introduced in 1966. It was the second state to introduce a state lottery. In its first year, the lottery sold $53.6 million tickets. By 1980, computerized games were introduced, and sales have increased over the years. In 1996, the state lottery recorded its highest sales value ever. In addition to being a business, the lottery aims to support education in the state. The New York lottery website has more information on the game.

Most lottery winners split the jackpot with another lottery player. This is the case for 6 out of 49 games. The odds of winning the jackpot in a 6 out of 49 lottery are one in 13,983,816. However, a 50 percent chance means playing the lottery nine times. A lottery enthusiast would have to buy 100 tickets every day for 265.6 years to achieve this. Increasing the odds to 90% would take 882.2 years!
