Last but not least: Creative Lotto

In the lottery, the probability of all possible combinations is always the same. The unrealistic combination 1,2,3,4,5,6 is therefore drawn just as often as the combination 8, 17, 25, 32, 37, 41, which smells like a six.

The only reason why you shouldn't tick 1,2,3,4,5,6 is that if the combinations and patterns are too simple, there is a good chance that another bright mind will come up with the same "idea". Any winnings would therefore have to be shared, thirded or whasawed. Annoying, if you ever win.

Nevertheless, Almap BBDO in Brazil shows that you can be a little more creative when filling out the tickets. For the Panamericana School of Art and Design, the agency not only sent out originally filled out tickets for the 80 million euro New Year's lottery to journalists, but also called for a lottery ticket design contest (in this lottery, six numbers out of 60 have to be chosen and a ticket contains three betting options).
 

In an online competition, participants designed their tickets to their heart's content - in the hope of winning a prize that would also change their lives. And possibly even more lasting than a few lottery millions: A 100 percent scholarship for school. The following gentleman enjoyed this with his Charlie Chaplin creation:

Interesting: the entries included not only several fours, but also one five. However, the case movie leaves open whether the ticket was printed out and redeemed. 16.2 million francs are currently waiting for a winner in the Swiss Lotto jackpot - get started and create your own. Winning the millions with a drawing would definitely have more style than the whole run-of-the-mill lottery. (hae)
