And of the top 20 places in the country playing the EuroMillions, 13 of them voted to leave the EU.
Pablo Grunbaum, Jackpot.com COO, said: “At Jackpot.com, we offer lottery enthusiasts the opportunity to try their hand at a range of games from around the world. We are pleased to see that despite being Eurosceptic from a political standpoint, players all across the UK are still making the most of Europe’s lotteries.
“With the Superdraw prize stacking-up to a huge £117 million, this is far more than the average UK Lotto and if won, the sterling payout would rank as the third largest lottery win in UK history.”
