This game has been extended to Tuesday September 18th, 2007.

You can view what line we won on, by accessing Mac’s spreadsheet at: http://tinyurl.com/33lgfg

You won a total of $58 and had $1.00 in your bank. So after getting your ticket back from Kroger, I spend $58 in tickets for tomorrow drawing.

Those tickets are attached to this e-mail.

You still have $1.00 in your bank. Which I plan to spend on Saturday, after I collect your winnings from Friday, which I have little doubt you will win yet again.

Now it took a long time, but the Texas Lottery Commission wrote me back. But, it was only after that Grant sends this e-mail that I heard from them. Grant’s e-mail was on 09/10/2007: Kroger Store Manager and Texas State Lottery:

On behalf of my friend Michael Porter, I am forwarding a copy of this email to you. Michael keeps this lottery club organized and I know that this situation has distressed him a great deal. I also know that you will do your best to resolve the situation in a fast and friendly manner.

I heard from the Texas Lottery Commission on 09/11/2007: Dear Mr. Porter:

I spoke with Lavanda at Kroger's in Customer Service and she has your ticket. You should call her and let her know you are coming to get the ticket. The telephone number is 214-599-9859. I apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused you and your group.

Thanks for contacting us,

Michelle Byrd

Communications Specialist

Now I was in Kroger, checking our tickets on Wednesday and buying these tickets, when Lavorana comes over and hands me my ticket. It was pretty damaged, but it was readable, and I was able to collect our money.

Can anything else go wrong with this game? I think so, so I will NOT hold my breath.

Your next drawing is on Friday, September 14th, 2007 and it’s worth $36 Million. The Cash Option is worth $21,600,000.00.

We have 120 shares issued in this game. We should be dividing the Cash Option Sum, by 120 to get the per share ratio.
