The Multi-State Lottery Association (MUSL) is a
non-profit, government-benefit association owned and operated by its member
lotteries. Each MUSL member offers one or more of the games administered by
MUSL. All profits are retained by the individual lotteries and are used to fund
projects approved by the legislature authorizing each lottery.
Formed in
1987, MUSL's first multi-state game was "Lotto America". The game ran four
years before being replaced. On April 22, 1992 the first "Powerball" drawing
was held. Since then, "Powerball" has become the number one lottery game in the
United States and is now played in 29 states, the District of Columbia and the
U.S. Virgin Islands.
