    I've got a can of Heady plus $120 for 2 tickets, if anyone has extras.

    got our rejections... I'm guessing if you don't get a rejection in the next few days then you are probably getting tickets!

    Unfortunately I think it is going to take more than a $3 beer plus cost on these. Hoping for tickets still they would be shipped to the GF's in St. Louis.

    Still waiting on two entries that extended family sent in (they are a couple hours north of Madison, but mail is almost always a day late there), but everyone I know in the Madison and Milwaukee areas struck out yesterday (at least seven entries).

    Everyone I know did as well. If 1 out of 3 really got tickets like they said in the paper they sent back, the odds of all 7 of your friends striking out is pretty bad.

    There was just a 6% chance of going 0 for 7 if the chance of winning really was 1 in 3 and the drawing was randomized. That's (1 - 1/3)^7. The good news is that @chrisisoutrunning still stands a majority chance (56%) of winning on at least one entry among his outstanding two, again assuming MHTG is being forthright. My group is 0 for 3 so far with one person yet to respond.

    Third year in a row i got a rejection and yet it looks like my friend will win his third in a row. I assume the Lottery is like the NBA Draft and they pull out the frozen cold envelope. Though I have a question has anyone ever had a Money order or Cashiers Check returned?

    Yes unfortunately. I had one returned last year. Just took it back to the bank and they refunded/cashed it

    Heard from my family last night, one was rejected, the other didn't get anything, so I guess there's still hope...

    Since checks are being returned, has anyone who still has theirs still in play see if the checks have cleared the bank yet?

    Haven't gotten a returned check as of today, and the check has not yet been cashed. Been checking a couple times a day.

    Rejected here. Looks like my family is going 1/3 as advertised on the rejection letter.

    I guarantee that as soon as tickets start hitting mail boxes or checks are cashed, someone will be posting here.
