My Massachusetts Lottery Blog

I couldn't decide which way to take the picture, so I finally just took it both ways.



The numbers I then played for Megabucks were:

07-12-15-18-24-32

The winning numbers were:

02-07-20-28-29-33

I got one right!

The tree cast a long shadow across the red brick sidewalk.



The numbers I played for Megabucks shortly after this were:

04-06-12-16-27-33

I'll find out what the winning numbers were in just a few minutes.

The winning numbers were:

12-18-20-33-37-41

I got two right!

I took this picture at work with my camera phone.







Recently I have played the following numbers for Megabucks, but failed to enter them in on this blog as soon as I played them:

Wednesday, January 18, 2006
04-27-28-33-36-40

Saturday, January 21, 2006
05-14-15-19-38-42

For the Wednesday numbers at least I can tell you if I won or not: I did not. For the winning numbers were:
08-16-20-24-27-40
(but two of the numbers were right and another was only off by one!).

Tomorrow I will add to this post and let anyone who's interested know if I won Saturday's draw.

Here is the addition to the post ... the winning numbers for Saturday, January 21 were:
02-03-06-14-17-19
I didn't win, but two of the numbers were right and another one was only off by one.

Here is a picture of my uncle, who died in World War II.



I played two tickets for Megabucks today -- the numbers were:

16-23-28-35-36-40

and

10-17-23-30-35-40

The winning numbers were:

6-19-20-21-37-42

Well, out of two tickets at least one number was only off by one!

I was the first one to the train station today for the 1:38, so I took this picture.



Then I played these numbers for Megabucks:

12-18-22-34-41-42

The winning numbers were:

02-12-30-32-35-41

How exciting! I got two numbers right, and two others were only off by one.

I'm going to take a picture of this post right now, and zip the picture in before I publish it to the web.

The numbers I played today were:

04-06-11-13-16-23



It is obvious to the sharp eye that I changed the wording of the post around after I took the picture!

The winning numbers were:

Megabucks
01/07/06
Saturday
15-18-20-36-37-40
None
$1,934,997.

Only one of my numbers was close, instead of the usual "one right, and one off by one!"

Here's a picture of the dollar bill I used to buy my Megabucks ticket tonight. I took the picture with my camera phone while I was standing in line. Unfortunately, the camera part makes a simulated sound like a shutter snapping when the picture is taken. This caused the woman in line in front of me to turn and look at me with a startled expression.



The numbers I played were:

01-06-12-15-20-31

The winning numbers were:

07-12-22-23-28-36

Well, one number was correct and another one was only off by one.

These turkeys were wandering around the neighborhood near my brother's house, shortly after I bought my Megabucks ticket.



The numbers I played were:

01-07-11-21-26-37

The winning numbers were:

8-10-15-18-22-38

Well, FOUR of them were only off by one! All I needed was just a little more luck....
