I apologise for my negativity lately
« on: May 21, 2005, 06:28:04 PM »
Guys, I won 25k on the lottery about 4 weeks ago.  So, I obviously was very excited and took my ticket to the lottery place here to get it cashed with the taxes taken out.  They refused payout saying there was a scratch on the UPC code identifying the ticket.  I looked at it, and could hardly see it, but they claim it voids the ticket.

I have been to see several attorneys about it, and frankly am just flustered.  

Anyways, it is not right to take out my frustrations on everyone else, and I apologise to all of you that I have been an arse too lately.

Take it to a TV station, Bodhi.

If the scratch is nearly invisible, they won't be able to afford the negative publicity.

Good idea, I know news stations around here have "trouble shooter" reports where they help people with problems such as yours. Like Toad said, once that camera crew bust into the lottery place, I bet they become more helpful.

bodhi, that is BS, they don't need the UPC code, they can punch in the numbers and get the results.

Let the lawyers get it on contingency.  By the time you get some, it should just about cover the legal bills.

sorry for the negative waves...

Don`t worry about Holden, Putz.
He seems to be one of the only fuggers on this board that has mucho intelligence.





I hate the bastige for cluttering things up with all those facts. :)

Too bad this happened now and not 2 years from now. I could have hooked you up lol.

I second getting in touch with the TV crew. Sweeps is coming up and they eat that s*** up.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.
