    Lotteries are good evidence that our school system does a poor job teaching probability.
    I'd argue that a significant percentage of lottery players treat it as an entertainment expense and understand the probability just fine.

    Not to mention these 50/50's go to half decent charities.

    I'll take the other side of that bet.

    How do we resolve this since there is no way to know for sure? Shall we have a duel?

    Only one true way to settle this.
    Bike racks, 9pm, bring your Pokémon cards.

    No way. Flames play at 830 and I have a 5050 ticket to buy when mom gets home. Trump believes in the power of positive thinking and so should you.

    You’re right, 9pm is past curfew anyhow. I was just trying to be bold and daring.

    I am buying a ticket. These are my people.

    Actually two tickets to double my chances. Statisticals.

    Oilers 50/50 back open with a reported 2.5x increase in either "tickets sold" or "server capacity", depending what article you read.

    So Either it goes to 12.5MM~ or it sells out 2.5x faster.
    I can eat more hot wings than you.

    You can't win if you don't play. That's a mathematical equestrian.

    Like the Lexus. ES is boldy styled and meticulously refined.

    So far its a flop. Ticket page won't load and only 150k after an hour (last time it was over a million by 11am). Does seem to be picking up speed, maybe people are giving up or they're fixing things behind the scenes.

    It is a shame the site seems to be broken since this is the last Oilers game of the year

    There is no point to invest in infrastructure when they only have one game left to play.
