The very first drawing proved that winning in Sportloto is real: the winner, who guessed 6 numbers out of 49, was a Muscovite, an engineer-economist by profession. The amount of her winnings was 5,000 rubles, which at that time could be used to buy a solid car. After the success of the Sportloto 6 out of 49 lottery, new lotteries appeared according to the formulas "5 out of 36" and "6 out of 45". The introduction of new combinations was accompanied by the study of international best practices in the field of lotteries, taking into account the ratio of the probability of winning and the amount of funds collected as a result of lotteries that went to finance sports in the USSR. At first, Sportloto draws were held every 10 days at the Sports Palaces and at the stadiums of different cities of the USSR. The results of the drawings were published in the central newspapers of the country. On January 10, 1974, the first edition of Sportloto was broadcast on TV. From that day on, every Sunday millions of Sportloto fans across the country had the opportunity to watch the draws on TV. The availability, the opportunity to win and the noble nature of the game very quickly made Sportloto the most popular lottery in the USSR. In different periods, up to 70% of the country's population took part in Sportloto, up to 10 million tickets participated in the drawing every week. The unprecedented scale of the lottery is explained, first of all, by the fact that Sportloto had a pronounced charitable orientation: up to 34% of the total volume of lottery sales went to support sports. Sportloto financed the construction of most of the sports facilities for the 1980 Moscow Olympic Games . The undisputed recognition of the lottery was the release of the comedy by Leonid Gaidai "Sportloto-82" . The impetus for its creation was the people's love and popularity of the Sportloto lotteries. Immediately after its release on the screens of the country, the film became the leader of the box office and remained so throughout the year. Sportloto-82 was watched by 55 million viewers, and now it is rightfully considered a classic of Soviet comedy. The period from the mid-1990s to the beginning of the 2000s was not the most successful in the history of Sportloto. In the wake of economic and political transformations, a large number of non-state lotteries arose, which negatively affected Sportloto. However, the reputation and popularity, proven over the years, helped the brand to resist and revive for its 40th anniversary. В 2010 году ООО «Спортлото» стало оператором государственных лотерей, проводимых в соответствии с распоряжением Правительства Российской Федерации в поддержку XXII Олимпийских зимних игр и XI Паралимпийских зимних игр 2014 года в г. Сочи. В феврале 2011 года были запущены моментальные лотереи Спортлото, а уже в октябре были проведены первые тиражи «Спортлото 6 из 49» и «КЕНО-Спортлото». Являясь официальным Партнером Оргкомитета «Сочи 2014», современное Спортлото поставило себе цель возродить лучшие традиции лотерей, в которых каждый участник делает вклад в развитие национального спорта и может выиграть крупный приз. According to Viktor Andreevich Ivonin, the legendary creator of the Soviet Sportloto, “the reviving Sportloto, not only in name, but also spiritually, relying on domestic experience, has real chances to become the successor of the glorious thoughts and deeds of the truly nationwide Sportloto lottery”.
