Lucky for Life

Lucky for Life (LFL) was a lottery drawing game, which, as of June 28, 2021, was available in 22 states and the District of Columbia. LFL, which began in 2009 in Connecticut as Lucky-4-Life, became a New England–wide game three years later, and added eleven lotteries during 2015. LFL's slogan was "The Game of a Lifetime". Drawings were performed by the Multi-State Lottery Association (MUSL) using a digital drawing system to pick the numbers. LFL was drawn nightly 7 days a week at approximately 10:30 p.m. Eastern Time.

LFL was modified on September 17, 2013, adding a second "lifetime" prize tier and a cash option for either annuity tier; it was modified again in January 2015 to its current format. Each LFL play costs $2.

The District of Columbia joined LFL (the first member added without changing the game's double matrix) on February 15, 2015, Montana on January 29, 2015, Kentucky on March 22, 2015, Ohio on November 15, 2015, Iowa on January 24, 2016, North Carolina on February 7, 2016, North Dakota on February 26, 2016, Colorado on July 17, 2016, Kansas on November 15, 2016, Wyoming on December 4, 2016, South Dakota on June 4, 2017, Nebraska on August 20, 2017, and Oklahoma on February 25, 2018. This gave LFL 23 members.

As of June 28, 2021, Missouri, South Carolina, and Minnesota have dropped out of LFL, with Missouri switching to the Multi State Cash4Life game.

In October 2025, news was released about the game's end, as MUSL and several other state lotteries moved forward with a new lifetime-prize game, Millionaire for Life, in early 2026. The final drawing for Lucky for Life occurred on February 21, 2026, with the draw down for LFL, or the elimination of available multi-draws, beginning on January 24, 2026.
