Does florida lottery post images of winning tickets online? They have to have a copy since the ticket(s) are turned-in.

Not debating if lottery is good or bad but just wondering if there is a place to look up not winning numbers but the actual winning ticket image.

I searched thro' the florida lotto website and don't see any photos of winning tickets. Anyone know why?

IMO, looking at number is like seeing the score board at half-time as opposed to watching the game(which is like seeing the winning ticket).

Again, where can I see the winning tickets? Is there a reason why it's not published online??

It's probably not published because people don't care. I play sometimes when the jackpot gets really large and all I care about are the numbers. If you want to "watch the game" look at the pics of winners holding their giant fake check grinning from ear to ear.

They probably don't post it so certain people don't make copies of it and print extra ones, and then try to cash them! You know...like they do with hundred dollar bills?

That's why they have serial numbers...so looks like floridians are clueless(including myself) as to why lottery commission does not publish photos of winning tickets.

Lack of interest is why they don't post picture of the winning ticket, only the winner cares.

Edit: Only the winner and you and maybe a dozen other people.
