How fast it's selling

Over the last 4 weeks, about 1% of this game's prizes were reported claimed each week, faster than the average for Arizona's $1 games (0.8% a week). By tickets sold, it is the estimated #21 best seller of the 56 Arizona tickets we can rank, at about 32,000 tickets a week.

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.
