Thanks for the update sticksave. With that said, some bastard is going to win in another state.

Wish it could have been a LGKer that won though.

We spent $38 and won $0 so I guess I'm in the same boat as USC there.

My favorite part of today was the guy from CBS/KCAL standing in the parking lot at Primm interviewing the people who drove from Vegas to wait in a 4 hour line at that lotto store just inside the CA border to buy tickets. You could have driven to Baker or Barstow and been back in Vegas sooner.

I figure the 2nd place win should be around $200,000 each give or take, haven't seen the percentage yet from HQ. The national news takes about two hours to get, but since we were 30 minutes late, might be a little longer tonight. I'll be up to post asap....at least i can sleep in now after the great game tonight in Edmonton!!! No more press conferences for now.

Oh the Bluebird account in Hawthorne hit one of 2nd place tickets, second time in a week, so I guess voulme does work after all. They also had a daily derby winner on Wednesday for $88,000.00....now if it does hit somewhere else....I want everyone to change games.....ONLY PLAY FANTASY 5...that is it. Only game with true odds.

I only won $2 from the mega number, but I still lost money since I spent $5.

The news of the night that no one is talking about is that this draw will give over 100 million dolars to the schools of CA. 70% of the $$ goes to K thru 12th.

sticksave can you tell us who owns / rums Mega? Where do profits go? How does jackpot double? 94%, what is the avg?

There seems to have been an error with my ticket. It failed to produce any money. I didn't think getting struck by lighting 500 in a row times would be so hard.

I think I read on Yahoo that you were 8000 times more likely to be murdered than to win the lotto. That was depressing.

Bah! I wanted to buy the Phoenix Coyotes and a bunch of other stuff! Instead of being a rich jerk, I still get to be a regular jerk! :facepalm:
