“Colorado Lotto is on fire!” Colorado Lottery said Thursday. “The winning ticket was sold at Charlie’s Market on 214 S. Main St. in the tiny town of La Veta -- population just 878!” The town is small enough, it could split the winnings across the entire population and each person would score nearly $3,000!

Colorado Lotto+ is on fire. A small town in southern Colorado sold a winning jackpot ticket during Wednesday's drawing.
