How to play Big Sky Bonus
Big Sky Bonus is the only game to make the high-tier prize list twice, so how does it work? Big Sky Bonus is a daily game drawn at 7:30 p.m. MT. To purchase a ticket, ask the lottery retailer for a Quick Pick to buy a ticket with random numbers, or you can grab a play slip and choose your own numbers.
On the slip, mark four numbers from 1 to 31, and a Bonus Number from 1 to 16. You can add up to seven consecutive draws to your ticket, so you will be covered for every draw that week.
The Big Sky Bonus jackpot starts at $2,500 and every time it’s not won, the prize rolls over into the next draw. The prizes range from $2 for matching two numbers up to the jackpot plus $10 for matching all four numbers plus the Bonus Number. If you match just the four numbers, you still win the jackpot but not the $10 for matching the Bonus Number.
Enjoy playing the Montana Lottery, and please remember to play responsibly.
