Bingo! It was Hee Haw. Ran from 69-93 . Country Western comedy hour featuring Roy Clark Buck Owens. I remember watching as a kid, pretty

sappy lame humor. Worthy of any dancing pigs if ever there were any.

If our ex potential lottery winner was smart, she'd start a line of autographed hats. I'd buy one. Wasn't there a tv show with sort of pink dancing pigs on it...he haw??? I hated that show...lol

And I hope Todd had a chance to do some sightseeing in DC. So many things to do. Hopefully Metro does not break down on him.

A good read. Lots of stuff in the making. As soon as one of us here hits a major jackpot, we should be taken even more seriously by industry

executives.

Hey that could be you dpoly, did you hit the PB last evening in PA.

Just got back from D.C. I'm not sure when I'll have everything written up, but when I do it will be in the News section. It was an interesting couple of days, and I'm glad I went. Le Fleur's does a great job it was a very well-run conference.

Dear Mr. Todd Northrop,

Please lobby for higher payouts on lower-tier prize levels for the MegaMillions and PowerBall Lotteries.

Thank you,

Sounds interesting, Todd, I'd like to be a fly on the wall.

Also, it's getting toward lunchtime and the mention of DC makes me think of the burgers at Capitol City Brewing Co.

Have fun.

I would appreciate:

better payouts in low ranks 50 cents per combination, maybe an option to play for less and get in consequence x percent of the jack pot,

leave the rest for roll over (prorata payout).

We have online play here, they also include full wheels, one ten number wheel with good payout for 10 euro, full key wheels.

They don't charge for online playing, it is rather the opposite.

You know that they can introduce wheels and statistics in their websites, also blogs.... [ More ]

Hi everyone, I'm checking in from Washington, D.C., attending the La Fleur's Lottery Symposium today and tomorrow.

The Le Fluer's symposium is a conference for US lottery personnel and vendors who provide products and services to the lotteries.

As the lottery industry will be undergoing some rapid changes this year and next, as a result of the sudden focus on Internet sales, I thought this would be a good year to attend and listen to what the lottery execs themselves have to say.
