How fast it's selling

Over the last 4 weeks, about 0.2% of this game's prizes were reported claimed each week, well below the average for Arkansas's $5 games (1.4% a week). By tickets sold, it is still the estimated #44 best seller of the 47 Arkansas tickets we can rank, at about 2,800 tickets a week: a small share of a big print run is a lot of tickets.

From ScratchCheck's daily record of the lottery's published prize counts. Dates are when a claim first appeared in those counts, and small prizes are often cashed days after purchase, so claims trail actual sales.
