Missouri (MO) Lottery
The Missouri Lottery was created in 1985, and since 1994 has used its proceeds to help fund the state's public education programs.
On January 20, 1986, the Missouri Lottery began the sale of its first instant game called "Jackpot 86". Barely a month later, on February 20, Johnie Magerl became Missouri Lottery's first millionaire when he won $2.1 million in the "Jackpot" wheel spin.
