I hate crowds and blowing $ on silly things so even if they won I would have regrets. But if you were a hard core cubs or baseball fan it would be the place to be!
I have not watched a world series game since early 90s when the Reds won! I like baseball just not that much. I have to say Cubs and Indians world series got me interested enough to watch a few innings last night. It was a good show. Those pitchers were increadible. Lots of strikeouts. And IU alumn Swarber had a shot off the outfield fence...that dude is the real deal too.

I heard some of the tickets were over $12,000, which is insane. Cubs are looking good this evening and Duff I agree with you that Schwarber is the real deal. He has 3-0 in the world series and still has the green light on his first at bat tonight and he hammers it.

Never seen it at a baseball game I have seen the 50/50 at Eldora speedway back when Earl Baltes owned it reach pretty close to that on a big night of racing and the best thing was it was a cash pay out right there that night. |

The 50/50 drawings each week at the Washington Indiana KoC Treasure Hunt drawing are paying roughly $1000 each and they are averaging about 25 drawings. That means the KoC is raking in about $25k each week just from the 50/50.

I heard the rumor that the 50/50 for the Knoxville Nationals was 27,000 for the weekend. Winner was said to have donated it all to the Brian Clauson fund. Do not know this for a fact. |
