Lottery Background Check Legislation SignedBeginning July 1, 2017, the South Dakota Lottery will begin using Federal Bureau of Investigation background investigations utilizing fingerprint cards on all new Lottery employees as well as applicants, licensees and vendors. Governor Dennis Daugaard on Feb. 9, 2017 signed House Bill 1025, the Lottery’s legislation regarding background checks. The new practice will bring Lottery in compliance with current law stating that no one can be involved with the Lottery if they’ve been convicted of a felony in South Dakota or any other jurisdiction. Right now only a South Dakota records check is conducted through the Division of Criminal Investigation. While the new law expands how the background checks are conducted, it doesn’t change who is required to undergo them.

Lottery Commission to Hold Lucky for Life Rules HearingThe South Dakota Lottery Commission will hold a public hearing on rules for the proposed Lucky for Life lotto game at their March 24, 2017 meeting. Once rules are approved by the Commission and the Legislative Rules Review Committee, the Lottery can proceed with plans to offer the new multi-state game beginning in May. Lucky for Life costs $2 per play and gives the player a chance to win $7,000 a week for life by matching five of five white ball numbers and the Lucky Ball. The game’s second prize is $25,000 a year for life and is won by matching five of five white ball numbers. Lucky for Life is played by choosing five numbers from 1 to 48 and one Lucky Ball from 1 to 18. Players can use a play slip to choose their numbers or purchase a Quick Pick ticket. Drawings are Monday and Thursday nights which means if the game is approved, the Lottery will offer lotto drawings six days a week. Lucky for Life is currently played in 23 states.

The March 24 Lottery Commission meeting begins at 9:00 a.m. in Room 412 of the State Capitol. For more information visit https://lottery.sd.gov/about/commission/

Final MonopolyMillionaires’ ClubDrawing Held Feb. 22 The Monopoly Millionaires’ Club promotion officially ended in South Dakota with the final second chance drawing held on Feb. 22, 2017. Three winners were drawn from among all eligible entries to win their choice of a trip for two to Las Vegas and a cash prize of $7,878 minus taxes or a cash prize of $14,378 before taxes. Initially players were vying for a trip for two to Las Vegas and a chance to appear on the nationally televised “Monopoly Millionaires’ Club” game show. The game show was discontinued in early 2016 and sales of the Monopoly Millionaires’ Club scratch ticket ended later that year. The final drawing was held to fulfill the game’s obligations to provide a second chance prize to players.

A monthly $2,500 cash prize is the latest

twist in the South Dakota Lottery’s Play

It Again second chance drawing program. Now

through June 27, players can enter their eligible

non-winning $2 and $3 scratch tickets for a chance

to win a monthly top prize of $2,500 or $100 in

scratch tickets. Drawings will be held March 30,

April 27, May 25 and June 29. Three winners will be

randomly drawn from among all entries received.

Social media posts, website promotion, and in-

store POS are being used to promote the giveaways.

Terminal messages will also be sent to all retailers

prior to the drawing dates as a reminder.

The new promotion is a departure from the

Lottery’s usual Play It Again giveaways in which

monthly drawings were held for scratch tickets or

gift cards and a $30,000 grand prize was awarded at

the end of the promotion. The Lottery is currently

looking at a variety of options for refreshing the

program. Watch for more information in future

editions of the Lottery Link.
