Our very Irish way to pick your numbers for Friday’s massive EuroMillions jackpot

Could it be your week?

JOE

This Friday’s EuroMillions jackpot is an estimated €125 million. Just let that sink in for a second.

Let that sink in

It’s an extraordinary amount of money so we’re devising an extraordinary process to pick our numbers. No more choosing numbers based purely on birthdays and what’s ‘lucky’.

If you like, you can use the ‘JOE system’ too. It guarantees results*.

*results may be positive or negative.

First pick: The number of times you’ve watched The Late Late Show in the past year 

If you haven’t watched any, simply round up to 1… also stop lying, you’ve tuned in at least once for The Toy Show.

Second pick: The amount of points you think Dublin will win by when they play their first Championship match outside of Croker in 10 years next season.

A note for all you overly-confident Dubs – 50 is the highest number available.

Third pick:  On a scale of 1-50 how confident are you that Ireland will overcome Bosnia in this weekend’s European Championship playoffs? (1 = not confident at all & 50 = super confident)

We are expecting a fair few people to pick 50 on their EuroMillions playslip.

Fourth pick: The amount of ads you expect on an average broadcast during TV3’s Six Nations coverage

As we said, the numbers only go as far as 50.

Fifth pick: Out of all the people going to your work Christmas party, how many of them have you never had a full conversation with? 

Be honest…

Now we need to change our process a little. Two lucky star numbers need to be chosen. These have to be between 1-11.

Lucky star 1: On a scale of 1-11, how much are you dreading this year’s office Kris Kindle? 

Lucky star 2: How many cups of tea/coffee have you made today? 

Now you have your lucky numbers, all that’s left is to buy your ticket. Best of luck!

This Friday’s EuroMillions jackpot is an estimated €125 million. Tickets can be purchased in-store or online until 7.30pm on Friday 13th November 2015. Play EuroMillions.
