“Ya can’t win if ya don’t play...”

Exactly. I bought a Mega-Millions ticket for tonight.

I know my chances of winning are pretty close to nil - but I can definitely dream about it.

$2 is cheap for such a great time of dreaming and escape from reality.

Movies cost 5x that much.

he odds of scoring the $654 million Mega MIllions prize is 1 in 302 million,

If I could come up with the 302 million I could buy every possible combination and guarantee a winning ticket......

But just my luck, two other people would have a winning ticket too and I'd be screwed.....

The past two Megamillions I only spent $2 for 7 tickets. How? Because just before that I got 2 numbers plus the Mega number giving me a payout of $10 which I used to to buy 5 tickets, one of which gave me a Mega number payout of $2. So I chipped in another $2 and got 2 tickets for tonight’s drawing.
