Check your tickets! If you bought a New York Lottery Take 5 ticket in Rensselaer County or Montgomery County then you could be holding a nearly ten grand winner.

Someone in the Capital Region holds a winning lottery ticket worth over one hundred twenty-seven thousand dollars. The drawing happened Saturday night, May 14th for the New York LOTTO.

A $21,000 winning Take 5 Midday ticket from the New York Lottery for the game on Friday, May 13, 2022 was sold at Price Chopper in Utica.

There is that old saying, 'when you're hot, you're hot.' Sometimes it just goes that way. Well, a small smoke shop in New York is red hot! They have sold 4 winning lottery tickets for more than $50,000 since Christmas and the biggest was a monster prize!

When it comes to games of chance, percentages and odds always play out. That is why most casinos don't go out of business. And the ones that do, have something wrong with their numbers. Take that as you may. So when one upstate New York lottery dealer sells 3 multi-state Powerball winning tickets in less than two months, something is going right. The numbers appear to be playing out well at a New York Lottery dealer in the town of Fishkill, New York.

Schenectady resident and New York Lottery spokesperson Yolanda Vega is retiring after 32 years. She is well known throughout New York state for the theatrical way she said her name before each lottery drawing. "I'm Yoooolaanda Vega!" She said that her signature way to say her name came about after she had a lot of espresso before one of the drawings when she was just six months in. After that night, she continued to do it for the next 32 years. Yolanda started with the New York Lottery back in 1990. Take a look at her through the years.
