Lottery pool rules in Wyoming

What a pool in Wyoming needs to know, each fact with its official source and the day we checked it. Another state

The short answer for Wyoming

What we found in the law and the lottery's own guidance
The pool agreement names who claims. WyoLotto splits a prize evenly between everyone who signs the winning ticket; only a person who signed can claim, and trusts and other entities cannot claim. Nothing in the Wyoming Lottery Act (W.S. 9-17) or on WyoLotto's pages that we read forbids adults from pooling money for tickets.From our Wyoming page, reviewed Oct 5, 2026

Rules change. The official lottery and the state are the authority; check them before you play or claim.

Facts, not advice: we read each one on the official page linked beside it. Pool creation is open wherever a lottery runs, except Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands (not open yet). The five states without a lottery stay closed. Responsible play
