First you would need hundreds of machines, a warehouse full of pre marked tix, I suppose some 7-11 franchise could do it

I remember hearing about the possibility about that California lotto hitting 30-40 million and those odds were 6 or 10m to one. My thought was, a. High odds on having multiple winners, b not insignificant chance of not covered all numbers...but if you blow it, declare bankruptcy and not pay the bill
