A while back I had a dream.And in this dream I was visiting my parents.I walked outside and it was raining basketballs!....Orange Basketballs!.......Okay,I awake, write down the dream and ponder the dream.Basketballs could be........O.....a 10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80...anything with a zero,any number that is round........or  how about what number represents the color Orange?.......that's it! the 7,back then I used to play the greyhounds,and the number 7 had an off color Orange vest!...And since my father lives up North(CT/MA)state line,I knew that in the dream,the 7's were going to be drawn up north.I knew that tonight the number 7777 was going to win in the Play 4.So I jumped into my vehicle,didn't do the speed limit,crossed the state line,and drove to a Variety Store in Worcester,MA.I filled out a Play 4 card.....7777-Straight-10 tickets! I handed the cashier the cards,he entered them into the lottery machine and then told me that the  number is all sold out!What the ?....I said"What do you mean,all sold out?"He said something to the effect that the lottery stopped certain numbers from being played due to an "Over payout resulting in the state losing money.....Blah Blah Blah.......I was pissed,and off I went,out the door!.........What came up later?   7777 it payed BIG!...and I didn't realise that I could have played,the first 3,the last three,the first two, or the last two numbers,or the middle two!!.......................

So,if anyone out there reads this and dreams about "Raining Orange Basketballs"wake up,don't take a shower,just fly to the nearest Lottery Sales Store Quick!!!And buy the numbers....7777!
