Texas Lottery Offering Chances to Win VIP Trip with Private Martina McBride Concert

The new Lady Luck 777 scratch ticket game includes promotional second-chance drawings for an all-expenses paid trip to attend the Lady Luck multi-jurisdictional lottery event

AUSTIN, Texas (April 3, 2024) – The Texas Lottery is bringing its players another unique opportunity through the new Lady Luck 777 scratch ticket game that launched on Monday, April 1. Through a dynamic partnership with Atlas Experiences and Pollard Banknote, Texas Lottery® players that miss out on winning an instant cash prize in the game will have an opportunity to enter non-winning tickets into the Lady Luck promotional second-chance drawings. Players that enter non-winning tickets could win an all-expenses paid trip to Pigeon Forge, Tennessee to attend the Lady Luck multi-jurisdictional lottery event, which features a private Martina McBride concert at Dolly Parton’s Celebrity Theater at Dollywood. McBride joined the Texas Lottery for a special appearance at the Slaughter Lane and South Congress Ave. H-E-B in Austin, on Wednesday, April 3, to discuss the exciting details about the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

“The Texas Lottery is always looking to offer new and unique prize opportunities to its players and we think the experiences that can be won in the new Lady Luck 777 scratch ticket game are sure to be a hit among our player base,” said Ryan Mindell, deputy executive director of the Texas Lottery. “While the game offers exciting instant cash prizes, the one-of-a-kind experiential prizes that can be won through the Lady Luck promotional second-chance drawings cannot be purchased or obtained anywhere else. By collaborating with Pollard Banknote and Atlas Experiences on this scratch ticket game and second-chance promotion, we think this innovative concept will not only excite our players, but will lead to strong sales at our retailers, which will ultimately generate revenue for public education in Texas.”

The Lady Luck 777 scratch ticket game offers more than $54 million in total cash prizes, including five top prizes of $250,000. Overall odds of winning an instant-win cash prize are one in 3.65, including break-even prizes. Players may enter non-winning scratch tickets from the game into any of the four Lady Luck promotional second-chance drawings to be held throughout the run of the game for chances to win an all-expenses paid trip for them and one guest to Pigeon Forge, Tennessee in 2025. Eighty lucky winners and their guests will take this once-in-a-lifetime trip.

“The ability to craft unique once-in-a-lifetime experiences for lottery players across North America is at the heart of what Atlas Experiences delivers,” said Derek Gwaltney Founder & CEO of Atlas Experiences. “We are thrilled to continue our partnership with the Texas Lottery to launch our latest national promotion with the country music icon, Martina McBride.”
