WICKED LOTTERY FIXED????

Last night 2/8 I went to the Wicked lottery. When I got to the table where you write your name on the index card and submit it, I had to wait awhile b/c a group of about 8 tourists from Germany were standing around and talking to the lottery guy.

When the lottery guy started calling names FOUR of the people from that group were picked enabling all 8 of them to go. Does that seem a little fishy to anyone????? What are the chances that so many people from one group would be picked?

I would say there were about 60 people at the lottery last night, not a lot, but I think that the chances of an entire group winning tickets is still very slim.

There have been several other times that I've been to the lottery and something like that has happened but never to such a large extent.

I've gone to the lottery about 30 times and I've only won once - am I not tipping the lottery dude enough?

Does anybody else think that the lottery guy might be up to something shady?

I've tried the Wicked Lottery 5 times, and lost everytime. But I think I've said this before on here, but everytime I go, theres these two girls, who are there everytime. They win every single time, and at this point they dont even get excited, they just get in the winners line, and start calling people on their cell phones to get them to come to the show. Ugh I just hate it. The lottery guy knows them by name (does he still wear that black beer sweat****?) and always ask is they need the tickets. Anyway end Rant.

edit: sorry double post

Of course it's not fixed. How can it be? Do you think he was hiding the cards of the German girls in his sleeve and pulled them out when he thought the time was right?

Me and a friend have tried the Wicked lottery about 30 times, I have won once, he has won about 15 times. He's just lucky.

Whoever said that they tried the lottery 5 times and witnessed that these two girls won every time, they also were just lucky. And what has the fact about them not getting excited anymore got to the with the fact that the lottery was fixed? I didn't get excited when I won it, you don't have to start screaming and bouncing up and down when you win it. It's not mandatory, you know.

So stop being so bitter about not winning it and actually bother to really watch the guy who's doing the lottery next time you try. It's not fixed.

Queen Muppet, believe me, I'm not bitter, I've seen the show several times regardless of my lack of luck. (I've learned to go up to other pairs of people that are in the lottery and ask them to accept tickets if both people win).
My friend that went w/ me to the lottery last night just told me that he heard the lottery guy tell the tourist group that they should put their names in last. Interesting. . . hmmmm?
I forgot to mention that the group that won were a bunch of VERY hot blond girls wearing EXTREMELY short skirts.
Maybe that helps? :)

OY. I won on the first try.
If i can win, it is not rigged.

Wish i could win the Q lottery. SIGH.

Nope. I don't have time to see it at the moment.

Ok, before I start, YES, I know I'm a lottery addict.
I don't even go for myself anymore, I just go to help my friends increase their odds.

Tonight when I went to the lottery there was ANOTHER group of German tourists. 4 of their names were called enabling all of them to win tickets!

Maybe it's not fixed, but I still think that's a very strange coincidence.

I've done the whole lotto thing quite a bit. Sometimes there are a few people, sometimes a billion. Never won. I don't think it is fixed.

Oh, and Corine! Get to DRS as soon as possible!

I don't think it's fixed because I won once out of my 2 times trying it. Also, I do find it suspicious that 8 German people were there and 4 of them won, winning 8 tickets. Could it be possible that he knows their names and when he pulls a card out, doesn't read the actual card and just says "John Smith" when the card could say "John Doe"

Did not know it was broken...

i've been kind of reluctant to try the wicked lottery. will it be a waste of time? is there ANY chance i will win? cause if there's 100+ people, i'm not bothering...
