    The chances of being struck by lightning are about 1:775,000.

    That's according to the National Weather Service.

    I feel like that number should be much higher, for my safety's sake.

    That's the estimated amount. The probability based on reported incidents is 1:1,000,000. Keep in mind that these are for a given year. The chances of being struck at some point in your life are much higher .

    These are all the states it is played in, so that's why the prize is huge, and the odds are high:

    I'm thinking of getting a ticket, that would definitely cover tuition and a car. Hey Sprung! I noticed you're from Indiana too. Sorry, I just thought that was cool.

    Darn! It's ok I'm sure I wouldn't win.Oh, well. Have you always lived in Indiana? I was born here, I've lived out of state, but I keep coming back. Being a Hoosier means you're from Indiana.
