Great News! You are not going to believe this!!!! I played the Big Game Lottery on Friday November 10th (22 million at stake). I picked the numbers 25-33-38-41-47 and big ball number 18 I forgot to check until today and guess what............. I won (22 million bucks baby)!! The winning numbers that came out were 26-32-39-40-46 and 18. Not my numbers but,...You see,...... I MEANT to play these numbers! It's not ambiguous to me! I WIN because, as anybody can see, my numbers were soooooo close. I have decided to protest to the Big Game officials and collect my prize. If they question the fact that I won, I am prepared to show them my lotto slip where the marks are clearly a little off center and leaning slightly towards the correct INTENDED numbers. I will challenge it in court, if necessary, and not just because I think that damn slip was just too confusing. I they still deny me, I will continue to ask for a new drawing until the numbers I chose appear. If that fails, at least they should let me submit a new card for that game. I am sure I will get those numbers right this time!
