The Pennsylvania Lottery has been a vital resource for programs that benefit Pennsylvania seniors, generating much of the needed funding to keep those programs going, since 1971. With all lottery games, trust in the integrity of the game is crucial to the game’s success and for the Pennsylvania lottery, that trust was shaken to its core in the spring of 1980 with a seemingly comical number combination for the Daily Number drawing on Thursday, April 24th.
YESSSSSSS! The Original Airing of the Daily Number "Triple Six Fix"! Thank you very very much!
I would have been entirely okay with throwing the sentencing norms out the window and doing something a bit more creative with Perry.
The day of his sentencing, they should have taken whatever The Daily Number was, and that's how many months he should have been in prison for. Either he gets lucky and walks out of jail for free if 000 was drawn, or spends 83 and a quarter years in prison if 999 was drawn, or anywhere in between. It would have been fitting.
Yall saw her little reaction when she pulled the last number....she said not today Satan lol
And she was right Look scandal

Lol. Word.
omg omg omg I had to stop the video for about 10 minutes to laugh 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
In itself, a 666 combination wouldn't make me suspicious of fixing. Obviously it draws your attention, but it's not as though it has less odds of appearing than any other combination. The fact that it actually did turn out to be rigged shows a baffling amount of dumbness in those who were otherwise smart enough to rig it. Why only weight down the balls other than 4's and 6's in all three machines? Common sense dictates that rigging different numbers in each machine would produce a less conspicuous combination. The way they did it, it was always going to guarantee two matching digits. The only possible combinations would be 444, 464, 446, 466, 644, 646, 664 or 666. All of those results attract attention, and had an alarmingly high 2 in 8 risk of producing the worst possible combination of a triple matching numbers result. And instead of rigging two balls in each machine, why not just rig one in each? The way they did it produced suspicious betting patterns, to cover the eight dubious possible combinations. Whereas rigging just one ball in each machine would guarantee only one result of their choosing, lets say 173, which wouldn't attract any suspicion if one ticket was bought knowing that those would be the winning numbers.
I’m calling the cops on you lol
It may have been the balls where mixed somehow before the machines were run. Of course it still would have been smarter to rig the machine in a way where the odds weren't as dramaticly altered.
Wow, Archive footage of the actual drawing! Neat!
The North Carolina education lottery has a pick 3 draw game and what do you think the winning numbers were on the Wednesday, May 12, 2021 night drawing? 6-6-6.
I was looking for an old drawing for the theme song that I first remember hearing as a kid, and this was it. I did not expect, nor did I know of, the scandal that follows.
I’d be willing to bet this wasn’t the first time they did this.
666... that's a hell of a drawing...
I remember this! I grew up in South Bronx and North Philadelphia. Both had good commercials!
I witnessed this right after my 19th birthday. God bless America! Beaver County, PA.
I was 16. And in spite of it we were much more innocent then
West Mifflin
They had to change the whole row of Machines but with the same mechanism to avoid drawings like this. Nowadays, they got better machines for The DAILY NUMBER (now PICK3), BIG4 (Now PICK4) and Quinto (now PICK5)...
What a tangled web we weave when we practice to deceive.
And they never stopped cheating.
That was nice, but the audio got cut off around the 14th minute for 30 seconds. What happened? Plus, when they showed tdn in harrisburgh, the had the big 4 set there too, but never showed tb4 drawing, why is that?
YES! The Original Big 4 Logo! I was hoping to see a live drawing of the original 1980 Big 4!
BIG4 wasn't a every night drawing back then until the late 80s-early 90s.
@@videonut1988 Sorry for the late reply. We're still looking through our tapes and converting more footage. If we find footage of the original Big Four, we will definitely post it.
Thanks for mentioning the original big 4. I wish there was a video showing the original big 4 drawing from the early 1980s.
It's all a scandell to this day! Computer draws. Trash

Dam 666 devil's at work
the way she tucked her lips lmao!!!!!!!
So what if a total stranger picked the same number 666 and the mob didn't know it?????
I know a guy
It's said in this video that the odds of the same number coming up 3 times are 1000 to 1. However that's wrong because there are 10 possible combinations of 3 numbers being the same. So while the odds of 666 coming up are 1000 to 1, the odds of three numbers being the same are 100 to 1.
The pa lottery for 4-4-22 was the same numbers for the day and nite pick 3 and 4 I found that extremely odd ! The lottery is a digital simulation of the old ball draw later and our brains are so use to the old systems that most people didn't pick up on the change. This digital form of the lottery makes it so much more easier to manipulate the out come!
Lol the draw number 666 is the number of the beast.
I remember this
Lol sign of the beast lol 😂
That any lottery with a non-trivial winning sum is ruled by randomness is too good to be true.
What's up with the audio here?
Which Pa lottery player didn’t think the 5 digit number wasn’t rig tonight……. except the few that might’ve won?!!! 3/22/24 😮😳😳😳🤫
666? Can you say FISHY!!
Lesson learned. Don't rig the lottery because it's against the law to do so. If you get caught rigging the lottery, you'd face some serious consequences like decades in state prison and/or a huge fine. Stay in school kids.
What the Hell? I’ll bet Nick Perry is rotting there.
That's not nice. Hope not
