Read this before you read the charts
If Fantasy 5 were perfectly even, every number would have come up about 284 times. They have not, and the gaps below are real. But they are the size you would expect from chance alone: the most extreme number in this archive sits just 2.4 standard deviations from the average, which is unremarkable across 39 numbers.
In other words, these charts describe what has happened. They do not predict what will. A number drawn 40 times and a number drawn 25 times have exactly the same chance in the next draw.

Consecutive numbers
41.7% of draws contained at least one consecutive pair, such as 23 and 24. People tend to avoid picking them, which makes them mildly useful for reducing how many ways a prize gets split.
All-calendar draws
30.0% of draws had every number at 31 or below — the range covered by birthdays. Those are the draws with the most shared jackpots, because so many tickets are built from dates.
