Gambling: PowerBall Mania

[GA Russell]

Tonight's Mega Millions numbers are...

8, 14, 17, 20, 39 and Mega Ball 7

Once again I failed to get a single number.

Is anyone here my new best friend?

[Mike Schwartz]

I saw that the odds of a win were right around 1 - 300,000,000

No Problemo

FWIW which equals NOTHING in reality, one of the winning tickets was sold about 4 miles from my home.....lightning strike missed me by just THIS much!

My $6 gamble yielded not even a single number.

[Soulstation1]

I hit the first number my heart started beating fast and then I missed every number after that
