Comments:

The draw used ball set T2 in the Excalibur 3 machine

The average prize was £ 9.92.

The prior history of the jackpot ticket included 36 wins totalling £255.

From Saturday 12th July 2003 onwards, Camelot has completely refused to issue per-draw sales figures for any of their individual games, despite continuously doing so for more than 8 years prior to that date. They blamed the media for only concentrating on the main Lotto game sales (which have been falling steadily for years), which seems to be a poor excuse to me.

Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 5.30pm GMT on Monday 26th February 2007 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.

Next Thunderball: #580 (Saturday 2nd September 2006) [No jackpot winners]
Previous Thunderball: #578 (Saturday 26th August 2006) [No jackpot winners]
