In Saturday’s September 23 lotto draw, 55 was the first number drawn (prima). This was the first time this happened in more than 15 years. In fact, the last time 55 was drawn first was on August 9, 1997, which is a record as far as I know.

After 55 it is the number 8 that has not been drawn first for some time. In fact, the last time 8 was drawn as prima was on September 30, 2006.

Another number that is breaking another record is 37, not as prima but as one of the five numbers drawn. The last time it came up was precisely three years ago in the last draw of September 2009.
