Players are treated to beautiful $5 tickets designed by Artist-In-Residence

PHOENIX (February 12, 2019) – Players and retailers alike are enjoying the new $5 Arizona 7 Scratchers game, admiring the local beauty depicted on these tickets and dreaming of winning big!

There are three different tickets, each with a beautiful rendering of iconic Arizona objects and native wildlife: a whimsical 7-shaped piñata with candies to scratch off, a 7-shaped Gila monster crawling across the desert sand with eggs and cacti to scratch off, and a Cactus Wren (Arizona’s state bird) perched on a blooming cactus, forming a 7 with shining suns and cactus flowers to scratch off. Besides celebrating the unique flavor of the Grand Canyon State, Arizona 7 is also about winning, with a top prize of $50,000.

Some people may not even want to scratch their tickets, though, as each one is a work of art from our own artist-in-residence Emily Costello. Emily is the artist behind last year’s beautiful and fun Lucha Libre Loot Scratchers tickets, and she is especially in-tune with the culture and the beauty of Arizona.

Playing Arizona 7 is simple: If a player matches any of the numbers to any of the four winning numbers they win the prize shown for that number and, if they find a “7” symbol, they win double that prize!

“This new Arizona 7 Scratchers ticket is just the latest in a series of games the Arizona Lottery is developing to showcase the art and culture of our great state in ways that celebrate our heritage,” Executive Director of the Arizona Lottery Gregg Edgar said. “We are excited to bring these works of art to the people of Arizona while also helping to fund vital programs and services that would otherwise rely on taxpayer dollars.”

Players can purchase their Arizona 7 tickets from any Arizona Lottery retailer.
