Lottery madness again -- Powerball $425M so far UPDATE $550M

I had the Powerball so hooray for my $12!

 

It was funny seeing all the people in convenience stores who never play the lottery and have no clue about how to play it coming in to buy Powerball tickets.
What will be even funnier is when the jackpot is won and there are still huge lines to buy lottery tickets, usually scratch tickets and daily numbers.
It's almost as if the serious, hardcore lottery players view these big drawings the same way serious drunks look at New Year's Eve, as amateur hour.

 

"Serious, hardcore lottery players" might be the dumbest fuckers on the face of the planet.

 

I'm telling Dad you said that.

 

Two winners, according to the Powerball website. One in Arizona, one in Missouri.

 

Well, goddammit.

Maybe Gary Pinkel won. The wife doesn't get that alimony.

 

I did not win.

 

Someone in Joplin got $1,000,000 for getting five numbers but not the Powerball. Yeah, I could have settled for that.

Once I heard the numbers, I looked at my mine and knew right away. Half the numbers on my five lines were higher than 29.
