I love the Florida Lottery. Just can't play it any more. Too long of a drive for my chauffer to make every week.

I only trust myself - and that's a questionable choice

Mike:

You neglected to include my favorite among the choices. Indiana has the most invisible lottery and the lowest payouts in the nation, so you know your money will go to a good cause: four million dollars' worth of office furniture (according to their 2003 annual report), "awarding" municipal grants for which checks are never issued or just lining the pockets of our beloved civic leaders.

That's a good value for anyone's voluntary tax dollar. I sleep much better at night knowing that, as long as these people are in charge, they'll never let anyone else steal anything from us.

Come, Pinky; we must prepare for tomorrow night...

I play in FL TN and GA... Out of all of them I have to stick to my home state. TN. Don't get me wrong I like GA and FL too but FL doesn't have PB or MM.

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

this is really bad.i wonder how much longer they can get away with this.i figured by now maybe something would happen.something illegal is happening behind the scenes in my opinion.i hope you don't give up on this....

I like Florida and Pennsylvania. And I was also very impressed with New York this past weekend. I'm glad I got my New York Lotto during the bonus days, it's up to a 47% payout now.

Mmmm, This is a hard one for me, because I'm a gambler, I love to take a chance. I've lived in Calif when it started it's lottery. I lived in Las Vegas for 7 yrs and drove to Arizona twice a month to play Powerball (150 miles round trip). Now I live in Delaware and I play still play PB. I also play MM in Maryland and drive 40 miles round trip for those tickets! Oh yeah I almost forgot, I'll drive to the DE, NJ stateline and buy MM tickets for the really big jackpots, just to make sure if I hit it, I'll only lose 25% to Uncle Sam! Hell, why lose another 5% to the state of Maryland for!

Keep dreaming the impossible dream, it just may come true!

Oh and one more thing, before I left Las Vegas in May of 01, I drove to the Nevada and Calif stateline for 2 yrs once a month to play their Super Lotto for a shot at the impossible dream of winning the jackpot!

Keep dreaming the impossible dream, it just may come true!

I voted "Florida," even though it's almost a four hour drive away and I don't get to play as often as I'd like. Fantasy 5 and Mega Money are my favorites. And the payouts in Florida are pretty good.

Georgia is second and Tennessee is third. In those states, Fantasy 5 is my favorite, and I occasionally play Power Ball, Mega Millions and Lotto South when visiting or passing through. Both state lines are about an hour and a half drive away.

Now if Georgia dumps Lotto South and brings back the Georgia Lotto in its original format, I'd probably change my "favorite vote" to Georgia.

As for Alabama ever getting a lottery -- well, you know what they say about hell freezing over...

I voted other, I can't seem to understand why KY isn't on this list when so many people post blogs on this state. My next choice would have be a draw between Tn, mainly because they're close to Ky and have only 1 draw a day, and IL because a lot of the numbers I play come out there.

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