  The GA Lottery site has the odds for the new $2 "$50,000 Bling" ticket listed as 1 in 3.07.  I just bought some and it's actually 1 in 4.07.

  I don't know how many people around here actually keep track of scratcher odds, but I thought I'd let anyone from GA who browses this forum and keeps up with that stuff know about it.  I'll probably send an email to the GA Lottery crew about it after I get this posted.

  I bought some anyway (4 to be exact) and hit a $27 winner (9x $3) and a $3 winner (Bling $1).  Not too bad no matter what the odds are on the ticket.

  A Gold account on Lottery Post:  $4.95

  A Millionaire Jumbo Bucks scratcher:  $20

  Airfare and hotel in March 2007 to see The Price Is Right before Bob Barker retired:  $600-something

  Winning something to get a trip to a district office:  Priceless

  I just received an email reply from the GA Lottery stating that they have fixed the mistake.

  Checked it for myself......and they certainly have.  It's correct now with the odds stating 1 in 4.07.

  Nice job. It's always nice to win something back no matter the size of the prize.
