that's funny. i used to have to void tickets all the time.
although a fair majority of people would buy the ticket anyway, even if it wasn't the numbers they wanted, precisely in case something like this happened |

| Sounds like a great story to spin by the lottery industry to reduce voided tickets, especially since it's cited in the article that it is very common for people to do so. If I were in the lotto biz, that's what I'd do. |

| Yeah but why would he void a ticket, you should have equal chances with whatever numbers you choose. That unlucky bastard should just took both of those tickets... |
