Californians can be the first in the nation to try their luck with the release of the new collectible Star Wars Scratchers lottery ticket.
In conjunction with the arrival of the most anticipated theatrical release in history, Star Wars: Episode III — Revenge of the Sith, the California State Lottery will be the first lottery in the nation to debut Star Wars Scratchers tickets.
These tickets depict the epic battle between the Sith, with images of Darth Vader, Emperor Palpatine, and Darth Maul, and the Jedi with images of Yoda, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Luke Skywalker, as well as the forbidden love of Anakin Skywalker and Padme.
"Everyone's favorite characters are on the tickets, including Chewbacca, Han Solo, C-3PO, and R2-D2," said Chon Gutierrez, Interim Lottery Director. "The scenes make these tickets an instant collector's item."
As much as I want to see the early showing of the new movie ...i just won't "camp out" in line for tickets. I'll dventually see it several times.
But I will stand in a shorter line for a lottery ticket
...wish we had that scratch off here.
I'm attending the red carpet chairty premier at the Ziegfeld in NYC on May 12 - one week before opening day! (Plus the exclusive afterparty at the 21 Club!)
What if collectors buy these tickets and save them instead of scratching the off?
Those who buy tickets for collecting will never know if they have won.
That's true. I'll bet there will be many collectors who don't scratch the cards.
Yeah, I can't wait!
Screw this. Just let them play Mega Millions!
I guess you're not a Star Wars fan.
I'm not either.
