Wouldn't it take too long to print them all?

There have been at least a couple of times that people have attempted to buy every combination. AFAIK, it has never worked out. It takes serious commitment...you need to fill out lottery bubble-sheets for ever possible number combination (you can't just go purchase X amount of quickpicks, where X=total number of possible combinations, because you could get duplicates).

If you have all of the ticket slips filled out, and have a large group of people disbursed in a large enough area so that you could get them all printed, it would work. but that just doesn't happen. Plus, there's the possibility of someone else matching your ticket (or multiple people), and the prize being split. You could lose a lot of money that way.
 
Numbers drawn, delayed results.
Delayed while powerball inc. riggs the process.
Will anyone be allowed to win?
From which area of the country?
One ticket? Two tickets? Five? Twenty?
No, they can not rig it as to the individual winner, but they do rig as to the over all benefit for powerball inc.
It all still boils down to organized crime, silly people.
