(September 26, 2006)--The Texas Lottery Commission reported nearly $3.8 billion in sales this fiscal year, the highest total since the lottery was initiated in 1992.
For the third consecutive year, a contribution of just more than $1 billion will go to the state's Foundation School Fund, which is used for public education.
Lottery executive director Anthony Sadberry credited teamwork between his staff and the retailers who sell tickets for the record-setting year.
The previous sales record of $3.7 billion was set during fiscal 1997.
