Before we begin today’s post, we here at Lottery Binge would like to take a moment to say farewell to Stephen Hawking. Regardless of your spiritual beliefs, or lack thereof, his contributions to the world of theoretical physics have greatly improved our understanding of our universe. Interestingly, his passing was on the birth date of another intellectual giant.
Spring Break is almost over, and what with St. Patrick’s Day being this weekend, you’d think Mega Millions would start things off with a bang. Turns out that that wasn’t in the cards. There was no grandstanding in the March 16th drawing. With St. Patrick’s Day falling on a Saturday this year, perhaps it’ll be “sisters” Lotto Texas and Powerball who run with the blowout baton.
