The VA incident, I actually saw footage of the 'process' and it was unbelievably chaotic ... they tried something insane like 14 different places with 100k of tickets in each one, but since they were buying them all (so 'random' picks wouldn't work) each card was hand filled out (and thus ran through a machine) ... was literally days of work. I think they still fell a couple hundred thousand tickets short, although they hit the 85%er or whatever.
It's a pain in the ass being behind somebody getting $20 worth ... I'd murder a dude if he had a stack of 600k easy-plays.
