BATON ROUGE, La. (FOX 44) (NBC LOCAL 33) – July was a big month for Louisiana Lottery players. According to the Louisiana Lottery Corporation, more than $11.5 million was awarded in scratch-off cash prizes and more than $5.4 million was won during drawings.

“We encourage players to sign the back of their tickets immediately after purchasing and to check them promptly after the drawing. Even if a ticket does not win the jackpot, it could have won another prize,” said Lottery President Rose Hudson.
