That would be awesome to have it everyday, problem is they can barely get the tickets to sell out since other states run this style of raffle. Granted, I'll buy a few, knowing FULL well I wont get nuthin. Its been consistent that its some first time player or a guy rushing in to a gas station that gets these tickets. The true wishers of such wins are left holding a dud. kindness is a small gesture accepted by another

Man not this game again. Not sure if I will be playing yet or not, get tired of being so close and never getting a dime back for a $20 ticket.

Not sure if I will be playing yet or not, get tired of being so close and never getting a dime back for a $20 ticket. i tried this raffle in december and not getting into it again...the $20 per ticket is not cheap...they say that this game offers the best odds at $1 mill (1:125,000).. well it does but it does so at $20 per ticket...and personally i dont like computer games and games that you cannot pick your own numbers...but i'm willing to bet that it will sell out again

It will sell out as they have the provisonal clause that the game may extend its draw date if the tickets dont sell out for the drawing. PA is populous and thereby a sure thing that it will sell out....
I am waiting though since my one store said they havent been selling as quickly as they have in the past. Rumor has it that they will pick up Memorial weekend when folks are traveling thru the state.
I'll even go so far as to say one of the major winners will be from out of state.....New Jersey loves to cross the bridge to play this raffle.... kindness is a small gesture accepted by another

Of course it will sell out. Especially considering the fact that they keep making the draw date further and further away. It is not until July 15th.

I am in! Got my ticket.  Although, I am against not being able to pick my own numbers, my husband and I will go half and half on a ticket no doubt as we have in the past. No luck on them so far for us, but........theres always a chance so you have to take it!
Good Luck PA Players!
