So, if the ticket was a loser, would he owe her half the cost of the ticket?

£500? Jeez, if he’s smart he’ll split it with her. From that gesture, he’ll be more than paid back.

If this is the only thing that is dividing western society, somehow I think we will be ok.

I had a friend who took his girlfriend on a date to a casino. His slot machine won him $15,000. Kn the drive home she said she didn’t know what she was going to do with her half of the money.

He dumped her.

Sometimes it’s just a friend thing. A buddy and I take a road trip every year and we usually hit a casino on the way. If I lose and he wins he shares half of his winnings with me, and vice versa. It’s always just seemed like the right thing to do.

The posted comments say a lot about the warped values of those individuals posting them.

The gift is his. Period.

Hers is a “You Owe Me” gift-giving. She gives you a potato and then she’s entitled to your steak.

Two idiots there - her for expecting half and him for not making the offer - they may as well split because it’ll never work.

When I knew my wife was going to be the one, all that was mine became hers too. W/o that trust, it would have been pointless to stay together or marry.

Yes, can cause a dilemma of sorts...

I was using a suppliers season tickets and somehow my program number was drawn at halftime and I was one of the 3 to get a shot from half court for a million bucks(??) (lot of money in the mid 70s <: <: <:), naturally my best 1st excuse was I was in street shoes, my 2nd was I did tip a few Buds at the time so was probably slightly off(probably helped rather than hindered) but I did make the layup for a hamburger or something like that.

The ‘real’ dilemma being whose money would it have REALLY been?
The supplier of the ticket, the company I worked for as I had gotten the ticket ‘through’ them?

Probably made myself a lot happier so now I can say that

“I BLEW THE SHOT” so as not to create a problem...

Like a 50/50 raffle at a charity event...I may but the ticket but I just donate the cost as - in my Drinking Days mind - if one were to win the drawing, the ‘correct’ thing to do would be to buy a drink (or soda) for the ‘crowd’ and then ‘give’ the rest to the charity....

A woman was afraid to fly to Las Vegas. Some acquaintances let her ride with them (about a 500 mile round trip). She won a multi million dollar slot prize and said it was God’s will. She gave nothing to the people who made it possible. There are some cheap bastards/bitches out there!
