  I've won $7 twice in KY PB, and $7 in Hoosier Lottery PB.

  I think we'd have a better chance passing it next time,  IF we can get it on the ballot again.  There are still a fair number of folks who are opposed, though.

  In the mean time, we drive to GA or TN once in a while on a Saturday morning.  I like the Florida Lottery, but it's a four hour drive to the state line.  We'll probably make another trip down there before the summer is over.

  A little over an hour and a half, depending on road conditions and construction.  Ditto to the GA state line.

  I picked powerball because it's not rigged when the jackpot is under 100 million.

  Oscar welcome.  Someone who is kinda near me...  Anyway..  I went with powerball because out of the two I feel better playing it rather than MM.  I guess it's because I've always had MM or The BIG GAME close to me.  Powerball is still kinda new.

  How are you going to win if you don't play?

  I like MegaMillions best!  I like the larger Jackpots they have.  I'm in Texas today, and hope to win their $28m Texas Lotto.

  I like MM best over PB because of their sales are being maintained and more people play.

  I went with Powerball because I won $5,000 once on it and I like the multiplier.

  I love doubles and remember, it's just a game!!!!!!

  i really don't  care enought to select between both of them . but if i won (the jackpot)  in any of them  that would be different

  I voted Tough Decision, but as of this minute, I like Powerball better, simply cos the base JP is $15 million. Yea Mega's JP is larger, but I aint that greedy.

  (I live in a Mega state)

  To Lotteries: Stop recording our # combinations, and figure out another way to rollover the $$$.
