Question: What was the name of Florida’s first lottery game, a $1 scratch-off that debuted in 1988?
Answer: Millionaire
Florida’s first lottery game debuted to heavy demand throughout the state. The scratch-off game was so popular on its first day that many retailers who began selling the $1 tickets at midnight had sold out by morning. Employees at businesses pooled their money to buy 15, 25, or 50 tickets at a time. Convenience store parking lots were littered with instant loser tickets.
