THIS IS AN ONGOING ITEM!

In Sweden this type of lottery is called an "American lottery" - sounds strange but the concept is enviously simple. Each ticket is perforated in the middle so you can easily tear off one side and give it to the loser winner. When you have sold out of hope (tickets), the seller breaks open the seal of the metal ring and puts the stubs from the ring in a container for mixing and selecting. These types of tickets have been around forever. In Sweden you have to get a permit for a lottery unless you are a registered sports-club therefore you often find these being sold at soccer matches. The ring makes it easy to walk around with. We have heard many comments that this would be a great necklace too, in fact, our friend Lucie made one!
