Beginning on April 11, The Massachusetts State Lottery will be selling Red
Sox scratch tickets. Prizes range from $5 to $1 million and someone will even
win the grand prize, free Red Sox tickets for life. That's right my fellow
degenerate gamblers and die-hard Sox fans, one of us will win free Sox tickets
for life. If that doesn't make you want to run out and blow your life savings on
a roll of $5 scratch tickets, then I don't what will.
A unanimous vote
amongst all of the Major League team owners granted their official license to
state lotteries allowing them to print the logos of their respective ball
clubs.. As the first state to implement their newly granted license,
Massachusetts has brought an innovative new game to all of the citizens of New
England and Red Sox Nation alike. None of the ball clubs will receive any
financial compensation from the sale of the tickets, but the Boston Front Office
looks forward to the added benefits for the citizens of the great state of
Massachusetts. Larry Lucchino said, "The Red Sox' goal is to continue a
corporate partnership with the Massachusetts Lottery that has already benefited
us as well as citizens across the Commonwealth."
The Red Sox Instant Ticket
offers more than just $150 million in cash prizes, and ten $1 million tickets.
In addition, players can win fantasy prizes such as merchandise, tickets,
all-inclusive trips, and other game-related experiences.
