Comments:

The draw used ball set T3 in the Excalibur 3 machine

The average prize was £ 8.99. One in every 20.2 tickets won a prize (=4.96% of players).

The prior history of the jackpot ticket included 7 wins totalling £50.

This draw had a record ticket sales for a Wednesday Thunderball game, which also lead to the highest number of prize winners in the 5-match and 3-match categories.

This was the first time ever that five consecutive Wed-to-Wed or Sat-to-Sat draws hadn't resulted in any jackpot winners.

Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm BST on Monday 16th June 2003 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.

Next Thunderball: #194 (Saturday 21st December 2002) [No jackpot winners]
Previous Thunderball: #192 (Saturday 14th December 2002) [1 jackpot winner]
