Lotto style game played in California every Wednesday and Saturday. Five main winning numbers are selected from a set of 47 rubber balls, as is a so called mega number which is chosen from a separate set of 27 rubber balls. California has historicly offered a number of Lotto style games, beginning with a so called 6-49 game in 1986, which was changed at various times to a 53 number game (in 1990) which included a seventh bonus number, then to a 51 number game which lasted until sometime in the year 2000.
The current 47/27 variant began in the year 2000 and continues to this day under the name Super Lotto Plus.
In 2004, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, as part of his redesign of state government, suggested that the California Super Lotto join with the lottos of other states to form a multistate lottery.
