State Furlough Day Closes Lottery Offices

PHOENIX, AZ–(Marketwire – November 22, 2010) – Due to statewide government furloughs, the Arizona Lottery’s Phoenix and Tucson Offices will be closed on Friday, November 26. This closure requires our employees to take an unpaid furlough day.

Lottery retailers will still sell tickets and pay prizes on that day. Game drawings will also continue as scheduled. Check www.arizonalottery.com for winning numbers.

Prizes greater than $599 must be claimed at Lottery headquarters. The offices will reopen at 8:00 a.m. on Monday, November 29. Arizona Lottery apologizes for any inconvenience this closure may cause.
