The side game where you can text message in and try to win $100,000 is a scam..Costs you 99 cents and with millions doing it they are cleaning up..Not really fair

Yeah I know it's a rip off. They make millions from people texting all those messages in.

It's just a very bad odds lottery. The odds are better in "Mega Millions" and you can win more money.
Oh, kids can"t buy lottery tickets, but no one checks on ages of text messagers. Why can TV networks run an illegal lottery and church groups cannot?

I don't watch it. This game takes no skill or knowledge. I don't like games like that. Side games and Internet games on TV shows are how they make money to help fund the TV show.

No, it's not really fair. I think it's just a cheap way to lure in watchers.
