Red Sox Logo to Appear on Lottery Tickets

The Red Sox are the first team to have an agreement to put an MLB logo on lottery tickets. Red Sox Instant Tickets will cost $5 apiece and debut on April 11 but the Red Sox will not gain any revenue from the deal. The money generated will support the 371 cities in Massachusetts.

Ridiculous. Isn't MLB supposedly anti-gambling?

Gambling is the reason Pete Rose was banned from baseball and now the MLB is endorsing it. That's a twisted system...

Hahaha, good shit arnold. I'm with Bobbyjim, gambling is the reason Pete Rose was banned... if MLB logos can go on lottery tickets, then Pete Rose should be in the hall of fame.
