For the third consecutive year, the Colorado Lottery announced record sales of $890 million and record distribution of $195 million.
The boost in sales has a lot to do with the two Mega Millions and one Powerball jackpot, each more than $1 billion.
According to the Colorado Lottery, of every dollar spent on lottery games, $.65 goes back to winners and up to $.24 goes to beneficiaries in the form of Great Outdoors Colorado grants, the Conservation Trust Fund and Colorado Parks and Wildlife.
