Mega jillions

[anotherVTskibum]

One person buys all the ticky for the pool. I believe the phrase goat rodeo was used. I believe that to be an understatement if we all each buy a ticket. Nightmare.

Imagine the hilarity if we each bought a ticket, someone had the right numbers, and he then got so excited (or drunk or what have you) that he lost the ticket before being able to claim it. It would at least be more on brand than just going dark.

And there's always the Ned Devine scenario...

To anyone complaining about “CA again?!”, Frazier Park isn’t much more than a truck stop along i5 for lot lizards to ply their trade and a gate way off-ramp to shady real estate developments hawked by Eric Estrada. My guess is the winner will likely be putting some of his investment into acquiring a full set of teeth. In other words, it’s a prime spot to buy a winning lottery ticket

[Timberridge]

Why don't we start our own lottery? I heard states get 25% and 6% goes to the administrator. That's like 31% each time we have a lottery.

Fucking California. Again.

i bought a ticket for our intern when i went out to get some for the fam yesterday
she said to me that she read that most of the super prize winners had been from Cali
my response was: "damn, shoulda driven to Cali"
then, later last night: "&*$% california lol, she was right!"

After I bought the last round of Tix I went for a walk around the lake. I wasn't planning go walk, so I was wearing all cotton. It was weird walking with a potential 1.7 jillion in my pocket. And then I got rained and hailed on. I was hoping the paper and ink was water resistant.

Fun to think about after a win

[ticketchecker]

so that's it? just like that we're not jillionaires?

bullshit

And by notice I mean, "I quit. Effective immediately. Tell me where to return my laptop."

Hope you held that notice for some future date or else bought your own ticket in California - at a Market and Liquor store in suburbs of LA.

[RShea]

So at least for the Powerball these are the top winning drawings and location(s) of where the tickets were purchased:

$2.04 billion – Nov. 7, 2022 – CA
$1.765 billion – Oct. 11, 2023 - CA
$1.586 billion – Jan. 13, 2016 – CA, FL, TN
$1.08 billion – July 19, 2023 – CA
$768.4 million – March 27, 2019 – WI
$758.7 million – Aug. 23, 2017 – MA
$754.6 million – Feb. 6, 2023 - WA
$731.1 million – Jan. 20, 2021 – MD
$699.8 million – Oct. 4, 2021 – CA
$687.8 million – Oct. 27, 2018 – IA, NY

Of course there is the other Mega Millions and of the top 10 only 2 were California.

[MontuckyFried]

New Sienna.

[present tense]

Maybe next time. Looks like someone in Michigan claimed the jackpot last night, plus a win over bama, big night for the blue.

At least it wasn't CA for the umpteenth time. I'm glad it was somebody in MI. Good for them! Hope whoever it is can keep it under wraps unlike that young tool in CA who won that record jackpot, and then instantly proceeded to buy multiple megamansions, blowing through his fortune as fast he can, quite publicly.

[evdog]

He probably bought a fleet of broken down volvos too, just to spite you personally.

[Buzzworthy]

Hey I wannna waste some more money. Who’s getting tickets for us?

[ex-powderbroker]

Getting pretty close to bajillion mark

[RShea]

Hey I wannna waste some more money. Who’s getting tickets for us?

Which drawing? Or both of them:
Mega Millions on Friday now $792 million estimate
Powerball jackpot for Wednesday is up to an estimated $559- so if no winner tonight, then Saturday will of course be higher

[liv2ski]

Can someone in a no state tax state step up and buy the tickets for Friday so we can get in on this. I would do it but I leave for skiing later on this afternoon and won't be back until Sunday night.
