I have a really good friend in Halifax who showed me a much better way at getting your tickets: Keeping a stash of slips and home and filling them out there, instead of at the "ticket seller".
I will admit that on the way to make my pics, I am suddenly hit with an over-whelming feeling to throw in an extra game. Usually when I succume to such strong feelings, I later regret it and wonder what the hell I was thinking .....taking the Giants in an Over, or the Stamps to light it up. My inspiration, isn't always inspirational.
Other times, like some of you, I leave my pics to the last minute and end up in the 7-11 line up with someone using cash/ debit for the first time in their lives in front of me. They usually need a bag, and have some detailed questions prior to exiting the store, leaving only seconds for the employee to process your bet.
Perhaps most annoying is to get to the store (and slips) with plenty of time only to discover that they are out-of the slips you need to make your wager, and don't know any thing about proline.This forces you to drive/run/wheel/bike like a crazy person to the next store in hopes they have your slips.
There are lots of good reasons to fill-out your slips at home (and pay in cash), unless perhaps you are married, and your wife hates gambling as much as my girl-friend does. In that case, I sugeest: under the lap-top as an excellent storage area. As always...
Good luck with your pics.
So get the fuck out of the way because i have til one to put these plays in.
