It only happens once every four years. And it’s not the Olympics or the World Cup. It’s Leap Day, the one day that gets added once every four years to put our earthly trajectory around the sun to synchronize our solar year with our calendar year. In actuality, it takes 365.2421 days for earth to orbit the sun. Over time, this adds up. Ancient astronomers noticed this subtly dating as far back as Julius Caesar. It wouldn’t be until the late 16th Century when the Gregorian calendar was introduced that added a 29th day to February once every four years. Well, since it is so rare, we know it’s a lucky day and want to share that good luck with everyone!
Running from Leap Day, Saturday, February 29, 2020 until St. Patrick’s Day, Tuesday, March 17, 2020, the Idaho Lottery is offering up a wee-bit more luck to the Draw Game Lucky for Life by adding a Pot o’ Gold. Players who purchase at least $10 in a single transaction on a Lucky for Life ticket will receive a FREE, $3 Pot o’ Gold InstaPlay ticket and the chance to win $1,000 instantly!
