The lottery is good if you win. And if you collect in lump sum.

Oklahoma spent $300 million in advertisement of the lottery alone. Now congratulate Oklahoma. The second person in Oklahoma to win the lottery, showed the camera crews an entire drawer full of scratched tickets.can someone please, please explain to me how the lottery can possibly be good?go look here, and tell me those are good odds... even if you are the 1 in 1,000, all you're going to is $500! thats hardly worth the time, orthe money

The OK Lottery is now a month old. You'd think 25k would no longer be its highest prize.

I bought the $5 ticket in Jenks this morning and got nothing. Later I played $10 on the nickel machines at the Creek Nation casino at 81st Riverside in Tulsa and won $36.

That's a great victory for Oklahoma to start a lottery. I'm happy to see Oklahoma have Powerball for January 2006.
