The first draw of the Sportloto lottery according to the formula "6 out of 49" took place on October 20, 1970 in the Moscow Central House of Journalists. The profit from the draws (half of the proceeds from ticket sales) was spent on financing Soviet sports. After the success of the Sportloto "6 out of 49" lottery, a new formula “5 out of 36” appeared on August 1976, and “6 out of 49” was transformed into “6 out of 45” in January 1986, which increased the probability of winning by 30%.
In 1980, the XXII Summer Olympic Games was held in Moscow and Sportloto made a huge contribution to the preparations for the Olympics-80. More than a quarter of all costs were covered by income from lotteries.

After the collapse of the USSR, the popularity of Sportloto began to decline. Many private lotteries appear during this period, with which it is difficult for Sportloto to compete.
