There are car enthusiasts here, and Corvette enthusiasts among them. Wish I could enter, but I'm one of "those Oregonians."

I'm sure you guys can find a straw buyer to help you out.

(Good luck getting the car from them if you (they) happen to win.)

You know what Ambrose Bierce said about lotteries - they're a tax on people who are bad at math.

Yeah but this has to be way better odds than a lottery and it (supposedly) goes to charity at least.

. . . and your first entry is free. Pretty easy math on that one.

Correction: Not quite free, but not limited to just the first entry. You can get one entry for the cost of two envelopes and two stamps. You can enter this way unlimited times.

But the on-line or toll-free entries, at the tax deductible cost of $3, $1, or less, per entry, does seem pretty reasonable.
