Thread Name: BS: Power Ball Over 1 Billion Dollars
Subject: RE: BS: Power Ball Over 1 Billion Dollars
The odds of winning this Powerball is 1 in 292.2 million.
Odds used to be 1 in 175.2 million until officials changed the rules in July 2015 which decreased the odds but result is a bigger jackpot.

Officials are allowed legally to reveal winner's names. (just your names but not address) In other words you cannot remain anonymous once you come forward to claim you are a winner to Lotto Officials.

I read about some guy who said if he won, right after winning he would build this big fence around his home and put in a big moat with alligators in it for all the "relatives" that would all show up.
I was cracking up after reading that. :-)
