Subject: RE: 2008 Kona Lottery, who's in?The Kona Lottery is a great thing!!! I went general entry last year (no passport club ), According to the stats I saw there were about 6500 US lottery entrants. Since only passport club members get a shot at the first 100 and all non winners are rolled into the general entry pool for the last 50 spots, the odds were 50/6400 or 0.78%. As the Great One said, you miss every shot you don't take. Worst thing that happens you are out $35 (2006 ), but the best thing is you may end up in Kona (2007 ). I won a spot, no special interest story, no NBC coverage, just pure dumb luck.
Best $35 I have ever spent  . |
