17. Hispanic Market: Recommendations Hispanic players love the Colorado Lottery. They play at convenience stores but are their needs being met? Are there specific Scratch Games and Ad campaigns directed at this market? Is there enough point-of-sale materials in Spanish language in convenience stores. ‘Feeling lucky’ is a large component of Hispanic’s Scratch game purchase ideals, and should be used as a theme in either advertising or point of purchase material, in Spanish. Hispanics appear not to have fully embraced Mega Millions, many respondents stated they did not even think of playing the game. Can these perceptions or lack of interest be altered?
