"LOOSE CHANGE" is near the end of the line, with only a small slice of its tickets still out there. Games late in their run get interesting when the prizes outlast the tickets; early ones are mostly a bet on the design. Here, the tickets and the top prizes are burning down at about the same pace. Everything above comes from the New York Lottery's own published numbers — we just do the counting.
