I usually subscribe to the truism that lotteries are "a tax on people who are bad at math", but when it gets this high, you just gotta buy a few.
I always swore that if I ever hit it big, I was going to go on TV, like every other doofus that get's profiled after they hit a big jackpot, and tell the world that "I'm going to buy me a new ass, 'cause mine's got a crack in it!" Been dreaming about the opportunity to use that line since I was seven years old. Them I'm going to go out and buy a GE Mini Gun, and bring it to the BRC. I'll also supply the first 2 million rounds of ammo for free shooting, but you guys (and gals, Tatjana) are on your own after that. Anyone else buying a ticket? [b]No-one won it on Friday. Let's try it again for Tuesday![/b] |

Already got mine.
I did this one other time when the Powerball got really big, so lets have some fun again... My first ticket is: 07-17-33-34-42 01 I'll make this the AR15.com ticket. If that one hits it and is the sole winner, everyone who posts under this post until the number is pulled (one to a customer, kids) gets a post-ban Bushie M4gery with all the trimmings (some pre-ban mags, ACOG, .22 kit, KAC RIS/RAS) and a couple cases of ammo. (Now lets see how many people actually read this post) |

Everyone here at the office just threw in a couple bucks to go get some tix. But I could always use an M4gery. Best of luck to all.
|
|
Hahah, I posted that if I won I'd give a 30 rounder to everyone who posted. Guess I'm stingy.

Best of luck to you Shaggy. It is God's work you are doing!

Hey!! Actually read the post!
I'm IN! I have always wanted to say on TV, if I won, "I'm gonna buy guns. Lot's of guns, big guns. Ammo, can't forget the ammo. Why? Because I can!" That should make everyone's head spin. hehehe |
|
Shoot man! Put me on that list! I am going out today to buy some as well. The pay off is only $88 Million but hey I could still use it!LOL! Anyway!
[shock][bounce] |

If I won I may have enough money to buy that M1A I've always wanted but couldn't afford.

I have always subscribed to the truism that "lotteries are a tax on stupid people". Well, color me stupid. Just bought 5 tix myself. Only the second time I've ever bought them. But man, when it goes above 200 mil, that really pushes my greed button.
BTW if you win, I'll be expecting that Bushie post-haste! Good Luck. |

The wife's "work group" bought a few tickets. If one of those tickets is the sole winner, we'll probably end up with about $7.48 after taxes for us...due to the amount of people!:)
Hey shaggy, can I get the M4 AND moving expenses???? Good luck to all that have tickets! |

I'm in, I don't care if I win, my luck usually runs to having really good friends!
So thanks! |

Sure, I'll take an M4gery if you win, Shaggy.
With a 220 million jackpot, the cash payout is probably 120 which leaves about 70 million after taxes. That's enough for you and all your close friends to retire. |

i'm not sure i've heard of the big game lottery. but the prize is kind of inviting... if i can find a ticket and win...you can be sure a new shooting/blasting fun park will be opening in central pa. |

Read it. What a generous offer! I still hope that I'll win though... (If only I bought a ticket it would be so much easier. :D)
I'll take a free gun any day of the week let alone an M4gery. Balu -- Si vis pacem para bellum! -- |

70 million to one, but since it's free to me...
Sure, I'm in. Just think, your name could be sung around campfires for the next millennia... |

I'm in! I went and bought 5 bucks worth over in Cahokia. I'm sure that if I win, with my share I'll be able to do something nice for you guys and my Vietnam Vet friends.
