Hoosier Millionaire

Hoosier Millionaire was a television lottery game show which aired from October 28, 1989 to November 19, 2005. The game show began on WTTV/WTTK in Indianapolis/Bloomington/Kokomo. Other stations airing the show on a statewide network upon the program's debut included; ⁕WLFI - Lafayette ⁕WKJG - Ft. Wayne ⁕WNDU - South Bend ⁕WTWO - Terre Haute ⁕WFIE - Evansville ⁕WGBO - Joliet, Illinois/Chicago/Gary ⁕WDRB - Louisville, Kentucky/New Albany/Jeffersonville With Marion-licensed WNDY trying to establish itself in Indianapolis, and with the new ownership of Indianapolis Motor Speedway owner Tony George, the Lottery moved the show to that station in February 1996, resulting in a few changes in the statewide network; ⁕WSBT - South Bend ⁕WFFT - Ft. Wayne ⁕WTHI - Terre Haute ⁕WTVW - Evansville ⁕WJYS - Hammond/Chicago/Gary ⁕WFTE - Salem/Louisville/New Albany/Jeffersonville WLFI continued to carry the show in Lafayette, while the show moved in the Chicago market due to WGBO's conversion to an owned-and-operated station of the Spanish language Univision network. During the 1990s, the show was sponsored by Long John Silvers, with their logo on top of the main gameboard. In addition, the show would also spotlight a "Hoosier Lottery retailer of the week" at the end of the show; in the early 1990s they would also spotlight an "[Indiana] county of the week".
