If I win the lottery on Tuesday, how much would it cost to hire VAN HALEN??

[hain23x]

The state lottery here is now 300 MILLION DOLLARS [img]graemlins/wtf.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/scared.gif[/img]

If I win, how much would Edward Van Halen™ © ® (Copyright 2002. All Rights Reserved. Name may not be reproduced without prior written consent of the copyright holder. Edward Van Halen is a registered trademark of E.L.V.H., Inc.) charge me to hire the original Van Halen to play at my victory party???

Dude, just ask Jeff Spicoli.

[LA]

...as much as they'll charge me when I win!

Did you pick your numbers or did you let the machine??

[hain23x]

since Jeff hired them in the early 80s, we'd have to add in inflation [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]
they got a cool million for playing the US Festival so I figured I could get them to play for under 10 Million

maybe???

I swear to GOD if I win, I'm hiring them! Everybody's got their price [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

i let the machine do it--5 of them--, but I might go back and get about 5 more and pick my own numbers

After taxes you'll only have around $150,000,000.00 which will not be enough to make Edward Van Halen™ © ® (Copyright 2002. All Rights Reserved.

and then you have to deduct the "lump sum" ammount, cuz I'm takin' that mofo in one big batch!

I figure after the lump dedution and taxes, I'll have at LEAST 100million left!

I think I could STILL make Edward Van Halen™ © ® (Copyright 2002. All Rights Reserved. Name may not be reproduced without prior written consent of the copyright holder. Edward Van Halen is a registered trademark of E.L.V.H., Inc.) an offer he couldn't refuse!

[img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img] If you buy more, buy them from a store that's had a winner already. Don't know why, but the stores with winners seem to have repeat winners! [img]graemlins/sssh.gif[/img]

Yeah, but then you know that they could never agree on how much Dave would get from that. Before you know it, Dave would be getting a kick in the balls.

Well then he'd better be wearing a cup! [img]graemlins/yell.gif[/img]

[distortion9]

Depends....which version ya want?

VH with Dave? I would guess 300 million.

VH with Sammy? Maybe half that? Yeah...bout 150 million should cover it.

VH with Gary? Around 9 bucks.

[hain23x]

although the lottery is now at 325 million, they say that by the time they quit selling tickets today it will be the biggest lottery in history!!! [img]graemlins/wtf.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/scared.gif[/img]

they said yesterday on TV that the onetime payout will be about 170million after taxes

I'd be willing to give VH at least 10million of it to play --but they gotta let me pick the setlist!! [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img] AND they have to let me give them a lecture about not acting like 10 year olds and how they need to get their asses in gear(IF Eddie is healthy)

so the offer is on the table--If I win, I'll offer 10million to them, then they can give me their offer then we can work our way to a mutual agreement from there

hey LA quick question

when playing the game do you have to have the numbers in order or do you just have to have the numbers?

ex: say I have 3,15,17,23,26 *30*

but the numbers drawn are 17,23,26,3,15, *30*

do I still win?
