$500,000 Spectacular!!!!!!


Meaney

Recommended Posts

So, there is this new scratch-off game "$500000 Spectacular" that just came out early last week. It is a risky 20 dollar ticket though :\

I have bought 2 so far. Won 20 on the first and 100 on the second \:\)

Any of you tried this ticket yet??

Hey Guys,

We got one of those going here in the Windy for St. Pattys Day. They only sell 500,000 tix @ $20 each and the prize pool is as follows:

4 - Million Dollar Payouts

5 - $100,000 Payouts

500 - $1000 Payouts

Half of the total money is paid out, the state gets the other half, typical Lottery payouts.

The overall odds of winning a prize is 1 in 982, not bad odds for a lottery.

I know what you mean...I felt bad afterwards, I was like "shouldn't I use that 20 to buy more beer" \:\(

hahaha ;\)

You DID use that $20 to buy more beer. After winning the $100, you can buy MUCH more beer than that $20 would have gotten you. ;\)

Will you come and touch my sholder or something, I will buy a ticket then, and it might even help as I leave for lake of the woods Thursday.... You sound like you have the luck right now.

I would like to mention that I joined the $100 club today as well, with ticket #4 that I've purchased since they came out.

I was asking the gal behind the counter, and she said yes, she's seen more $100 payouts than the minimum $20.

But... I guess it shouldn't be that big of a surprise. If you were buying a $1 ticket, it's not that big of a deal to win $5.

Multiply both numbers by 20 and you've got these payouts.

When I lived in Kansas City they had a $10 game there I would buy. One night I bought one, nothing. Then another- nothing. Fast forward to #5 and my last $10 bill, nothing. Well, I was out of cash. In Missouri you can use a credit card to buy lottery tickets- so I got 2 more with that. Hit $700 on the second one. Most I have ever hit, felt like a million. As far as this topic, haven't played the $20 yet, but will sooner or later.

I just picked up my St. Patty's day Millionare Raffle ticket here in the Windy. I am #442,852 and #442,849 out of 500,000 to be sold, they are right around 89% sold out.

Tickets were $20 each and the odds of winning something are under 1 in 1000, not too bad for a lottery. There will be 4 million dollar payouts (so I got that going for me, which is nice)

LOL

I bought one today and found out that my boss had just bought one earlier. Neither of us won. I said we should pool our money and go in together on them so we bought one more and won $20. Odds of winning a prize are 1:3-ish, so it played out as advertised I guess. I turned that one in for another but got another goose egg. I suppose we need to buy two more to get back to those 1:3 odds. lol. Every card had a $500,000 prize on it, but I'm guessing they all do to keep people interested.

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
