Couple wins millions using lottery loophole
When I read this kind of stories about US lotteries (and there seem to be several of this kind of stories going around), I always wonder how on earth it is possible for so many cases of failed lottery rule design to exist in the first place, and for those clear failures to persist for so long.<p>Did no one notice that the lottery always lost huge sums of money during the Rolldown draws, while it gained money on normal draws (as it should always be the case)? No one noticed that certain convenience stores suddenly sold hundreds of thousands worth of tickets in these draws, while most other stores sold a normal amount?
