Wisconsin Just Launched 3 New Packers Scratch-Offs, Led by a $10 Game Rated 75
Wisconsin leaned all the way into football for its newest release, launching three Green Bay Packers themed scratch-offs on July 24 at $1, $5, and $10. Here is a look at each, with the price, the top prize, and the ValueScore™, our 0 to 100 rating of how much a ticket is really worth, as of the launch of these 3 games.
$10 Packers ($10)
$10 Packers is the strongest of the three. The $10 ticket carries a $75,000 top prize and rates 74.8, in our Good range, with a 69.2% payout percentage and overall odds of 1 in 3.90. All three of its top prizes were unclaimed at launch.
Green & Gold Crossword ($5)
Green & Gold Crossword is the mid-price option, a $5 ticket with a $50,000 top prize. It rates 65.1, also in the Good range, with a 62.8% payout percentage and the best odds of the group at 1 in 3.80. Three top prizes are available.
Go Packers ($1)
Go Packers is the $1 entry, with a $700 top prize. It rates 44.2, in our Fair range, with a 58.2% payout percentage and odds of 1 in 4.00, and five top prizes still to be won. It is the cheap, fun option rather than the value play.
Which one to buy?
By the numbers, $10 Packers is the pick, pairing the highest ValueScore with the biggest prize and the best payout percentage of the three. Green & Gold Crossword is a reasonable step down in price with the tightest overall odds, and Go Packers is really about wearing the colors for a dollar.
One honest note: these are fan tickets first. Their payout percentages, from 58.2% up to 69.2%, sit below what comparable price points average nationally, which is the trade-off you often accept with a licensed theme scratch-off. If you are buying for the Packers connection, that is a perfectly good reason to buy, and this is a fine time to do it with every top prize still on the board.
