Someone in the state of Oregon is going to be a millionaire on March 17th. Call it a mini-stimulus plan by the Oregon Lottery. Anyone old enough to buy lotto tickets can plunk down 10 bucks a pop for one of the 250,000 tickets offered in the St Patrick’s Day raffle.
One person will win a cool million bucks while ten others will snag 20 grand and a THOUSAND will multiply their investment by ten (and walk out with $100).
The odds of hitting the jackpot are a mere 1-250,000 which crushes the astronomical 1 in 195 million odds of hitting Powerball (Megabucks is 1 in 6 million).
Tickets are available at all Oregon Lottery locations.
