Noticing on TV in semi-constant commercials that Family Feud now has their own line of lottery tickets. Not sure what distributor they\'re from though.

The commercial has a man in an office talking to his boss, wanting a raise. The boss asks the survey if he (the employee) deserves a raise.

The survey buzzes \"X\"

Lastly, the man asks for Tuesdays off. The survey goes DING! DING! DING!

The Michigan State Lottery shows up first on the list when Googling \"family feud lottery tickets\". Seems in line with the other Fremantle-licensed scratchers: match YOUR NUMBERS with the SURVEY NUMBERS to win associated prize. Yawn.

/should that be Michigan $tate Lottery?

How exactly would you propose they do it otherwise? As far as I know, with relatively few exceptions, there\'s some sort of matching element involved.

(Some Wheel scratchoffs I\'ve seen are actually played in a manner similar to the show- or for that matter, crossword scratchers.)

\"Match three of the same host and win the prize indicated on the chart. Prizes range from Dawson ($25K) to Anderson ($2).\"

There have been some lottery tickets that actually have gameplay based on the associated show, but most state lotteries are run by people who know that your average lottery player isn\'t intelligent enough to handle a game that\'s very complicated.

And of course, if you match any 2 hosts and also uncover a Richard Karn, you get TRIPLE THE PRIZE DOLLARS!!!

See, I was gonna go with \"and if you get three Richard Karns, you owe the Lottery another $5.\"

My lottery went further, at the state fair one year, they had people who bought tickets fill in entries to play a version of the game on stage, with questions from the show.

Holy crap, is that real?

Do they have one based on Hit the Buzzer, Win a Cookie?

The Ohio Lottery had a similar concept for one of their scratch-offs back in the 90s. The name of the scratch off game wasn\'t as obvious as the aforementioned one, although \"You MIGHT Win Your Dollar Back\" would be an interesting name for a new low IQ instant game, along with \"Scratch This!!!\".

And if you get 3 Ricki Lakes, you get a wooden nickel.
