Answers to January Trivia

New Years Trivia: The New York Times started the traditional Ball Lowering Celebration in 1907. This world-renowned event is seen across Times Square at the top of the tall narrow building known as One Times Square in New York. On New Year's Eve, it descends on a 77-foot flagpole at 11:59 p.m. and reaches its destination at exactly 12:00 midnight.

Gambling Trivia: The American Roulette Wheel has a zero and a double zero where the European Roulette Wheel only has the single zero. The addition of the double zero gives the house twice the chance to win against the player.

Lottery Trivia: The largest lottery jackpot in history was a $363 million (annuity) jackpot won on May 9, 2000 by 2 different winners from Michigan and Illinois.
