"The Kansas Hot Lotto – Twice a week from the MUSL & the Kansas Lottery"
The Kansas Lottery is 1 of 16 US District & State Lotteries that offer the Multi State lottery – Hot Lotto – in this particular case the Kansas Hot Lotto – as part of the overall Kansas State Lottery portfolio of lotto games.
Hot Lotto is a Multi-State USA Lottery that is run and operated by the Multi-State Lottery Association (MUSL) – who administer and syndicate the game across the United States of America. It is one of the largest US Lotteries – having produced a largest jackpot to date of a whopping US$ 19.97 Million.
The very first Hot Lotto draw took place on April 10th 2002 with 6 USA Lottery companies taking part who were all members of the Multi State Lottery Association.
Hot Lotto was introduced by the Multi State Lottery Association as part of its celebration of the 10th anniversary of its massive Powerball game and was aimed at giving some of the smaller US Lottery companies the chance of creating larger jackpots similar to those found in the larger State Lotteries.
Draws for the Hot Lotto are made from the offices of the Multi State Lottery Association (MUSL) in Urbandale, West Des Moines, Iowa.
The Kansas Hot Lotto was first sold on March 15th 2006 with the Kansas Lottery actually giving away thousands of free Hot Lotto tickets to launch the game in the State of Kansas – the 9th State to offer the Hot Lotto game.
The Kansas Hot Lotto works in the same way as the Hot Lotto game works in all the States and Districts in the USA that offer the game.
Jackpots start off at US$ 1 Million and ROLLOVER after each draw the top prize is not won – increasing in size by a minimum of US$ 50,000 each time – making for some large jackpots to be won.
6 numbers are drawn in total for the Kansas Hot Lotto by a random number generator – firstly 5 numbers from 47 are drawn and then from a second set of numbers – 1 number (the HOT ball) from 19 is drawn.
