Well, I figure someone has got to win, might as well be me, but I need a ticket for that.
I've had a great week so far, so might as well go for the triple crown.

Odds of winning are astronomical....but SOMEONE has to win eventually. Might as well be me!

Never bought with the intent of winning always just did it to donate, but boy was it nice! so go buy that ticket it only takes one!

I'll buy a ticket, but my luck is more like Bad Luck Brians -
Wins Lottery. It's the Hunger Games.

PowerBall is 2 bucks and Mega Millions is still just a buck.
For 1 or 2 bucks it is worth it at times like this just for the fun of it. You know you wont win, but the "what if" is the fun part.
