Nebraska Won’t Pay Off Misprinted Lottery Tickets

The Nebraska Lottery will not pay out to dozens of players who thought they won prizes in a holiday scratch-off game due to misprinted tickets. The lottery cancelled its Holiday Bonus Bucks game when the mistake came to light in September, but 405 tickets had been sold before the game was cancelled. Lottery officials said state law does not compel the lottery to pay out on tickets printed in error.
