I mean I'll just spitball here but its it totally unreasonable that this thing could be rigged?
Since its all done electronically, it would be easy to run a system wide scan to see what number combinations werent drawn or only have 1-2 winners and then magnetize the balls to have those numbers come up or even worse have a "spotter" draw those numbers in a random location prior to the drawing. I mean its 2 billion dollars and greed can make people do anything is it really impossible? If someone said to me, hey we are going to make you the "powerball winner" I would keep my mouth shut for eternity wouldnt you?
