People play the month and day everyday..........this time it hit in NC so in your mind the fix was in.

With paranoia you'll never dine alone.

Those who run the lotteries love it when players look for consistency in something that's designed not to have any. So many systems, so many theories, so few jackpot winners.

There is one and only one 'proven' system, and that is to book the action. No matter the game, let the players pick their own losers.

Back in the day I thought state lotteries might fix one drawing a month just to make payroll. The payoff would be much less noticeable than $4.5 million in NC and some players could collect too.

I had just enough time to get just one pick-4 box winner on a Oho Lottery drawing "coincidence" when the the final score (42-39) of the Ohio State - Michigan football game was drawn about 20 minutes after the game ended. I wanted to play that number straight 3 times and boxed 3 times, but was shut out. The Ohio Lottery paid out $2.2 million but could have paid out a lot more had the game ended an hour earlier. Because there wasn't much time to by tickets, most of the winning pick-4 tickets were probably bought at sports bars or anywhere people watched the game.

Found a few other lottery drawing "coincidences" too.

Indiana's evening draw on 12-20-2021 was 1220. Ohio's evening draw on 12-12-2021 was 1212. Pennsylvania's evening draw on 12-21-2021 was 1220, and it still paid over four million dollars. People do play the actual dates and also birthdays throughout the year. These seem like more than just coincidences. Nevertheless, congrats to all the winners as these were nice Christmas gifts.

It was obviously rigged, and the reason they rigged it to come up 1224 on 12/24 was to maximize how much they paid out. I mean why else would they rig the game unless it was to maximize the payout and reduce their own profit?

Exactly. 1224 being drawn on Christmas Eve is pretty good confirmation that it's NOT rigged. Why in the world would the lottery choose to draw a commonly-played combination, forcing them to pay out millions in extra prizes? Makes no sense at all.

Many people think both but I was happy to see that payout I think NCEL is trying harder to please the pick 4 players here . We have many that play quads day in and day out both draws and we have just as many that will play the date hoping that comes out. Probability low however they can spare some change with new schools being built I think I should have an entire gym named after me HAHAHA j/k

Was 2021 drawn somewhere during 2021?

In once played 13 on Friday 13th extra lotto drawing and with success, if I remember well.

Rigging the machine to play the date could very well be a marketing strategy.It creates a buss among the public drawing attention to the game while creating an illusion that winning is as easy as playing the date.

I once called a number that ended in 5853. Wouldn't you know it! 5853 came out the next draw!
Then there was that time I passed a population sign with 451......and 451 was the next pick 3 draw!

Guess what happened when I made a purchase for $13.59.......

Quite the coincidence for 911 to fall on 1 year anniversary. With 2 draws 2% probability so not impossible.
