Title: New Lottery game in WA (OT)
Post by: mparrish11 on February 11, 2004, 12:13:04 PM
Heard about a new WA state scratch lottery ticket game last night on the radio.  Really cheezy commercial!  It is the ENTIRE TPIR theme with a guy singing about playing the game and winning and what he will do with the winnings.  Almost sounds like the old GSN commercials where they would have people sing terrible lyrics to a theme song.  Anyway here is the link to the WA state lottery TPIR page:

I will be getting my ticket(s) tonight!!

 Hmm. I NEVER play the lottery, but I'd try one or two of these :) Cool. :)

Same here.  It's that whole "Voluntary Tax" thing that keeps me from playing.  If you go to the website, there is a  demo ticket you can play on (at least on the top part).  I'll definitely be stopping by my friendly scratch ticket vending machine at Fred Meyer on my way home....

I finally played one of the Wis. TPIR tickets. It's a $3 ticket with two games - either Plinko or Cliffhangers, and a "big wheel" scratchoff (if your spin out does theirs, you wn a prize, 2 chances) Cliffhangers was a game with a list of numbers, each of which was on a list under part of the cliff. Get a line in a row, you win that prize, and the longer the line the bigger the prize. Won $8 on the ticket which is better than usual.

Punch-A-Bunch, that's great!  

If I lived in Washington, it would be something if I bought that $5 ticket.

Then it would be something if I would win on Punch-A-Bunch, Showcase Showdown & Showcase for a possible Triple Siren GRAND SLAM!!!

Why don't they make a scratch-off for GRAND GAME!!!

I might add that the Washington Lottery obviously needs a new programmer.  That's the slowest response time in clicks I've seen for quite some time.
