I haven't read this story* but in my experience, the lottery is a total scam. I hope they show the lottery in a negative light.

It made me feel very embarrassed as an English major to go my whole life until last year without realizing the Lottery is fixed.

A place near here did a Shirley Jackson-inspired burlesque night on Monday. Final act involved a (paper) stoning. Also earlier someone danced as Freddy Krueger to You Make My Dreams.
