The Missouri Lottery has a number of exciting games to play, but none of them offer a top prize like our $20 games. The newest $20 game is "$3,000,000 Taxes Paid." Not only do you have 20 chances to win on this ticket, you could win up to $3 million taxes-paid or even a second prize of $500,000 taxes-paid.
Here's the commercial that showcases the game.
There are still large prizes available on other $20 games as well. Check out "$5,000,000 Cash Extravaganza," which still offers three top prizes of $5 million, and "$200,000 A Year For LIfe," which will pay out yearly for as long as you live. Ask your favorite Missouri Lottery retailer what $20 games they have available.
