Lotto Madness
On February 16, the lines in front of California convenience stores stretched halfway around the block as gamers plunked down their dollars in hopes of winning the largest state sponsored lottery in U.S. history—$193 million. Despite the astronomical odds of winning players worldwide drove, flew, and waited in line to participate in this megabucks giveaway. It was reported that one Chinese contingent showed up with over $100,000 in pooled money on Saturday and flew home empty handed on Sunday perhaps sadder but definitely wiser. Three winners will share the prize but as of the date of this writing the lucky trio haven’t revealed themselves.
