This is the second time KISS and the New Mexico Lottery collaborate to make great prizes available to the public. They originally launched the world’s first-ever “KISS” Scratcher in June 2010. In its debut week, the “KISS” Scratcher was stocked by 83% of the lottery’s 1,100 stores making this game one of the games that were activated most rapidly in the lottery’s history.
According to the lottery’s representatives, the “KISS” Scratchers created a buzz and a frenzy that helped the lottery to reach an audience that was not targeted before since it attracted people who had not played lottery games before or that played infrequently. For this reason they have decided to bring back the band to awe and delight KISS fans once more. National lottery
The “KISS II” Scratcher ticket is now on stores and you can make the entries of your non-winning tickets online to participate in the lucky draw. Lottery results
