Powerball game is played in 44 of the 50 States plus Washington DC, US Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico The Jackpot tonight is 1.5 BILLION dollars......Yes, that's right 1.5 BILLION , it's rolled over twice a week with no winners now for quite a few weeks I was very surprised to hear Nevada does not sell Lottery tickets.......along with Utah, Mississippi, Alabama , Hawaii and Alaska Surprised as in the fact that Nevada and Mississippi both make very large revenues from gambling ventures Wish me luck, I bought 4 tickets costing 2 USD each ....roughly just over five quid ......With odds of about 290 million to one to actually strike the big one With all those tickets being sold nationwide they reckon roughly 80 per cent of the possible winning number combinations have been sold already so you just never know
Bless her cotton socks,............this 84 year old granny became an instant multi millionaire in a town not far from me and I can recall she never claimed the prize for quite a while, it was all over the local news .......but they do give you 180 days to claim otherwise the cash goes back into the next kitty I also bought my tickets from a Publix Supermarket this week .....Uncle Sam will take a huge chunk naturally , about 45 per cent in tax of the winnings but still a nice little cash nest egg Any other BlueNoses in the US playing ?? **thumbup Edited by PartisanBCFC, Jan 13 2016, 11:15 AM.

Damn! I thought this thread was to tell us you'd won the lottery and you were going to treat us all to five year season tickets. |

Nah ! Billy Connolly and Sean Connery are pushing on a bit ..........No experience at football management Jimmy Calderwood might be worth a shout but has only managed in Scotland and Holland ........and then there's Sir Alex Ferguson who once lived in Small Heath but he's probably enjoying retirement :ball: |

Fatlad Where did you get that story from about the 17 year old ? The winning tickets in Florida and California have not been claimed by anyone yet (as of Friday pm) The Tennessee winners were a married couple who have just appeared on TV .....and their ticket has yet to be processed and verified by the State officials.....there are sure to be some scammers out there attempting to make forged copies of the winning numbers http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/tennessee-couple-claim-winning-ticket-for-us-powerball-jackpot-nbc/ar-BBoeCPz?ocid=spartandhp Edited by PartisanBCFC, Jan 15 2016, 09:33 PM.
