Across many households in many languages, people are asking, “Hey (name)? What’s for dinner?” In some places, (name) is planning to cook a new dish. In others, (name) announces “Leftovers.” Sometimes, leftovers don’t seem very appetizing. Just the name alone makes some stomachs churn.
Now, leftovers aren’t inherently bad. Food waste should be minimized as much as possible, and left-over leftovers can be frozen, provided they’re still fresh. For lotteries, leftovers are all but a certainty. Some leftovers have more kick to them than others.
After a holiday weekend, it was fitting that something carried over into Lotto Texas and Powerball. The leftovers served up on July 6, 2022 gave the jackpots a shot of extra flavor. The Lotto Texas jackpot became $6.25 million, and Powerball’s jackpot continued onward to $48 million.
