Comments:
- The draw used ball set T1 in the Excalibur 3 machine
- The average prize was £10.91.
One in every 20.2 tickets won a prize (=4.95% of players).
- The prior history of the jackpot ticket included no wins.
- The winning number 9 has
joined the winning number frequency
table
leader (the number 3) on 5 such appearances.
- The only number now not to have appeared
as either a main or Thunderball number is 2.
- The sum (62) of the
5 main numbers was the outright lowest ever.
- The
sum (75) of the
six winning numbers drawn was the joint lowest ever.
- This draw had the highest number of 5-match
winners to date, but
also the lowest number of 1+Thunderball winners ever.
- Ticket sales increased for
the third consecutive week, which hasn't happened before.
Ironically, the £10m Saturday September Super Draws
seems to have helped the Thunderball sales more than the
actual main lottery sales !
- Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm GMT on Thursday 16th March 2000 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
