Congrats to people at least won 4-7 bucks.
I bought $8 worth and didn't win a buck, but I am framing the ticket.

1.5 or 1.6b powerball was crazy and fun. Will never forget this fun hype.

Fixed in what way?

What would have the value been here in fixing this?


Remember, to fix something, there either has to be no winner or a predetermined winner... neither of which are really possible.

How don't you see it? The numbers kept coming up unmatched for SOME reason. There's no way it reached that amount without being fixed.


I didn't even get 1/2 my money back, that's how I know it was a hoax to begin with.

That's funny you say that. I was grocery shopping with my wife this past Sunday and noticed how the store was unusually empty. We figured the same that many people spent too much on lottery tickets and couldn't afford to go grocery shopping.

I hope to God that's not the case. If so, that's very sad for our society.

Really wouldn't be surprised. It's often the lowest income bracket who line up every week, spending an hour at the gas station scratching tickets. That's what I've noticed around here, at least.

See the link I posted above for the woman who started a gofundme page because she spent all her money on powerball tickets and didn't win...

How'd you like her in charge of the family finances?

No, "I was stupid" or "I'll never play again" but give me money so I can gamble so more.

Same is true everywhere. I notice people spending a lot of money scratching tickets.

It's ok to play once in a while but not to the point where you can't even put food on the table.
