They've been doing the Millionaire Raffle for a few years now but this one is the best ever in terms of chances to win. I've been buying a ticket every payday, and other times, and have managed to get 6 tickets so far, and will buy another this weekend. The pool I run also has one and I'm going to ask if they want another.

Can't wait to see how I do

What I find interesting is that Louisiana is not as heaviliy populated as Florida yet they have a 1 million raffle with $10.00. In Florida a $10.00 raffle ticket only gets you $700,000.00 before tax. Another example how FL lotto games are a rip-off for the player.

I just might ease on down there for some crawdads, gumbo and raffle tickets.

Then over to Whiskey River Landing and do a little stompin and sliding around on that plywood flo with the Balfa Toujours.
