I didn't know why there are some errors. Congratulations to the winners.

The Mich lottery once display one number on screen and another on the print out and they had to pay on both numbers.

I agree, my advice is to take advantage of raffles when they come around. I know some people don't like the absence of a plethora of $1 and $2 prizes, but I think they're great.

I hear you, but at the same time it's great to hear the lottery reporting something like this quickly and being all over it.

Raffles and other rare drawings have the greatest possibility of errors in reporting, because the lottery doesn't get a lot of practice with all the mechanisms (operationally). Best to hang on to non-winning tickets for a few days because of it.

That may be a completely honest mistake or malfunction but man, I don't like the sound of it.

I bought a couple of tickets for the drawing, but I didn't win anything. Congrats, to those that did though.
