The Kentucky Lottery is making a major change to it's nightly televised drawing.

On September 16, 2012, the nightly drawing will no longer air on TV.

The drawing will be streamed live on the lottery's website, www.kylottery.com.

Officials say, "Players can receive text messages or emails with winning numbers by signing up for the Kentucky Lottery’s Player’s Fun Club on the website, or subscribe to the lottery’s Twitter feed that automatically distributes winning numbers."

Lottery officials say the switch is due to the increase use of players looking up winning numbers online.

By making this change, officials say 95% of their spending will be saved.
