"We couldn't be more pleased with the partnership formed with the airport authority," said Lottery Commissioner M. Scott Bowen. "For years players have been asking us if they can play the Lottery at the airport and today we can answer with a definitive yes."

Over 94 cents of every dollar spent on Lottery tickets is returned to the state in the form of contributions to the state School Aid Fund, prizes to players and commissions to retailers. In fiscal year 2010, the contribution to schools was $701.3 million. Since its inception in 1972, the Lottery has contributed more than $15 billion to education in Michigan.
