Going Bananas is a $1 scratch-off from the Virginia Lottery (game #2353) with a top prize of $1,000 and overall odds of 1 in 4.98 at launch. 1 of 5 top prizes is gone, 4 are still unclaimed, and an estimated 22% of tickets remain. Across every prize tier, 129,338 prizes are still out there (it started with 587,967).
About three-quarters of the tickets are already gone, which makes this game well into its run. Why care? Because the same prizes mean different things early versus late — the stack they're hiding in keeps shrinking. Right now: four of five top prizes left, and the ticket pile is shrinking faster than the big-prize list, which is how you'd draw it up. Same time tomorrow — the board will have moved a little, and this page will move with it.
