Ohio State's 42-39 victory over Michigan also was lucky for players of the Ohio Lottery.
Minutes after Saturday's game was over, the numbers 4-2-3-9 were drawn for the Pick 4 game.
"You know it happens," lottery spokeswoman Marie Kilbane said Sunday.
Bettors can play the game in a variety of ways. Anyone who played $1 and picked the 4-2-3-9 combination in order won $5,000. The odds of the numbers turning up in that combination were 10,000 to 1.
The lottery paid a total of $2.19 million in winnings. Players had wagered $347,867.50.
Kilbane said it's likely that most of the bets with the winning numbers were placed after the game ended, but she did not know how much money was wagered in that period. The football game finished at 7:13 p.m. and the drawing was at 7:29 p.m.

You would have had to be in line watching the game on tv to have had them get it on in time....If they knew that the score would have brought that type of payout they would have applied the payout limit on it, i know it surprised them ......
Congratulations to the ones who were able to profit from the score.....

Watch out for the bad weather in SC - there is a storm kicking around in the Atlantic churning counter clockwise soaking the Carolinas and coastal GA . Mix in the cool temps and the high winds and we got us a little 'noreaster down here !!
I will be going across the border tomorrow for a shot at the ever elusive Powerball myself...
Have a safe and happy Thanksgiving and drive carefully ..

how i would've loved to have put five bucks on that number standing in line watching the last of the game.i would've been going to the lottery office to get 25,000 dollars.
This is interesting.....according to the Ohio Lottery website 98% of the tickets sold for that number were sold after 7:00
That number was very popular for that what 30 minutes after the game. Some stores even sold almost 40 winners. Well its nice when the players win once in a while.

Bought my ticket during halftime. Went to Buffalo Wild Wings to get dinner and stopped to play my numbers for the evening. I had 2349 as one of my numbers. Didn't think about it again til 9pm that night. Oh well. I like to let everyone think that I was the last $100 in the total payout.
Good Lookin Out! It was a wonderful Trip !! The last day that we were there it was in the 70's! Got the PB tickets But no luck YET
But there is always the next draw :P
