The Oklahoma Lottery Game Show
The Lottery produced a game show taped in Oklahoma City (also produced by Sande Stewart) which ran from October 2007 to August 2008, and aired on CW affiliate KOCB in Oklahoma City, and Cox Communications cable channel 9 in Tulsa. The show was introduced to combat lower than expected sales as a result of not offering video lottery or keno. Players on the game show were guaranteed $500 each, and could win over $50,000. The second and succeeding shows include a "returning champion". The show was canceled due to low ratings. The Oklahoma Lottery Game Show was hosted by Brad Morris and Amber Dickinson.

—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
“The body in the grave is like the tree in winter; they conceal their greenness under a show of dryness.... We too must wait for the springtime of the body.”
—Marcus Minucius Felix (2nd or 3rd cent. A.D.)
