On sale for a full week as of early this morning, and 1900 tickets sold so far for a jackpot of 19,000. This can't be good, can it? I'm thinking I'll buy 1 ticket in a week or two just because you can't win if you don't play. Just one ticket.

Hey, no need to waste the money flying out. Just send me the bucks and I'll buy your tickets and as a favor just for you, I'll hold onto them till the drawing. Of course I'll let you know IMMEDIATELY if you've won.

Yeah, I'd buy a couple. In fact I got a feeling about it.

I better fly out there.

I think it's a lock.

Sounds like the ultimate sucker bet to me.

Dear Idaho Lottery,

Enclosed is $20 I can't stand having, I'd like to skip the formailities of buying a rsaffle ticket and just give it to you.

Sincerely,

A. Schmuck

Idaho is going to start selling a new raffle in a week or so. Tickets are $20. Only one winner drawn, and they get half the take. The $10 raffle tickets have been struggling to sell 250K, so I assume the $20 ticket will be less popular. I would guess they'll sell 200K and the jackpot will be around 2 million. Would you buy a ticket?

I'm using firefox so can't paste the rules here but if you want to know all the skinny go to idaholottery dot com and it's on the front page.... [ More ]
