    Shiiiit, I can't even hit two numbers in the current format. I have better odds of getting laid by 10 different Victoria Secret models on 10 consecutive days that winning this rigged shiiithole.

    Do you guys believe they sometimes rig the lottery system for BIGGER JACKPOTS?

    Or do you believe it's just random. The correct numbers just never come out?

    I believe they rig it for larger jackpots. The more $ with ticket revenue... the more $ states receive who are involved in it.

    I forget some of the stats but it was on the local news in the break room this morning... More likely you get hit by an asteroid or become elected president than winning. Also said odds don't increase by buying more tickets.

    I'd rather put $100 on a sports team at -110 giving up points, at least I have somewhat of an idea who will win. That being said I still put some $ down on 5 tickets. The lure of easy money is very strong...
