Default By what name should the lottery be known

My vote would be as follows: Although I do not like the term "Sooner State," I would call it the Sooner State lottery.

I also hope we get the power ball.

Sooner State Lottery would probably be better than Sooner Lottery....that way OSU Cowboys wouldn't be offended.

76% of Oklahomans support OU, 11% support OSU, the rest support "other". We needn't worry about the pokies.

How about the "Ticket to Hell Lottery"?

or the "Don't you need to be spending this money feeding your children" lottery?

Could be all of the above.

It depends on whatever company comes in here and manages it.

Thumbs up Re: By what name should the lottery be known

I'm amazed that Oklahoma is getting a lottery!! I wished for so many years, during the time we lived there, that the state would have one. Now you finally get one.

I just found this out the other day from a good friend of mine in Del City. I read The Oklahoman every morning faithfully, to keep up with things back "home", but I guess that's a topic I missed!! 8-(

--Larry S.

PS- I think that Oklotto, Lotto Oklahoma, or Sooner State Lottery would be ideal.

Given Governor Henry's primacy among lottery proponents, I'd just as soon we called the darn thing "BradBall."

That could be our "pick six." Or shorten it to "B-Ball."

I bet we become a powerball state.

How about Oklahoma Lotto? I'm sure we'll also have these games...

Oklahoma Scratch 'N' Win

Sooner Pick 3

Sooner MegaBall

Go Pokes Pick Six

Drawings held every Wednesday at 7PM (when most Assembly of God Wednesday services start) with a re-run at 11PM on KFOR-TV 4 or KOKH FOX 25!!!

Let's name the lottery what it is all about. More money for the Indians lottery. Don't they have enough already, the Chickasaws have more money than the state has. The Choctaw tribe comes in second, why do we keep giving the indians money and not getting anything in return.
