If you're doing the Lotto, Carlow might be a good place to do it

Carlow is one of the top five luckiest counties in Ireland, new figures from the National Lottery have revealed. 

Statistics from Lotto HQ show Carlow – which is the second smallest county in Ireland – has had 22 wins, which averages about 4 wins for every 10,000 people.

Since the Lotto game began in 1988, Carlow has had 22 jackpot wins totalling over €43 million.

Kilkenny, however, might have had two more wins than Carlow, but it’s at number 25 out of 26 in the rankings.

The average there is 2.4 wins for every 10,000 people in the county.

Laois is the only county with less luck than Kilkenny, while Louth tops the list as the luckiest county in Ireland.
