Not deliberate. Just one of those things like the folding $20 bill that shows the twin towers flaming/smoking and also the Pentagon. Sure most of you have seen that.

Sorry, I think it is setup.
I even told my wife jokingly, I should play 911 in the lottery Wednesday as it will probably come up. I didn't because it didn't seem "right".
Like when "800" came up years ago after the TWA tragedy.

(CT lottery BTW)

Even more unbelievable was that it was NY's lottery.

Sorry just my opinion.


But hey, if it puts a smile on someones face, I am all for it.

It's illegal to do this. Buyers of tickets could sue the state government.

No doubt. Someone fixes a state lottory and there's gonna be Hell to pay...and jailtime to serve...and lawsuits up the ying-yang for years to come.

I don't care how "odd" it seems or how "unlikely" of a coincidence it appears to be. The truth is, the odds are much more in favor of that number coming up on that day, then there are in farvor of anyone fixing the lottory numbers. Be realistic.

Yeah, your right. They would never do something illegal.




















The sarcasm store just called me, they want their cut.
