Next Sunday, how many of you will be there for the Amis’CAL lottery?
Will you be among the 50, 100, or 150 enthusiasts, captivated by the numbers called out by the game leader, with the desire to win ingrained in you and holding your breath: just two more numbers! But, it’s slipping away right in front of you! Filled with frustration, helpless as another competitor snatches “your” flat-screen TV!
Purists won’t tolerate a single sound while others whisper, yet it is an almost religious silence that punctuates the games that follow one after another, only occasionally broken by the joyful cries of the winners: some winning a range of beauty products, others a television, a dinner at the Negresco, or perhaps one of those boxes of very fine wines.
This game has its codes; some come with their own grids, others with their family, and many have their lucky numbers or charms.
With 20โฌ, perseverance, and luck, you might leave with a prize, and for the less fortunate ones, there’s always the very well-stocked raffle.
