LOL!! Not good with that type of formula, But would someone who is please post the odds of BOTH winners being from the same state, That also happens to be the same state in which Blizzcon is being held??

Its gotta be in the billions. It would be like going to Ceaser's palace and hitting two high dollar jackpot slots that are sitting right next to each other... At the same time.

@Akers: it is convenient that the winners are both in CA though. VISA saw this as a way to pay for everything pretty cheaply I'm sure. Either way congrats to them.

Some of you are complete idiots.
1) This contest wasn't done by Blizzard, it was done by visa.
2) The winners got 2 tickets to blizzcon and two visa giftcards worth 2k for travel expenses. That was the prize FLAT OUT regardless of the state they lived in.

This just means the winners essentially get to pocket like 1.5k after they pay to get up to blizzcon...if they don't just pocket the money and resell the blizzcon tickets too. Either way, those of you raging at blizzard and claiming the two won so blizz wouldn't have to foot the travel expenses, lern2read next time.

@Cranio: I agree, bring it to the east coast damnit! But they are located in California so of course that's where they'd have Blizzcon.

Now now, theres still gas payments, or bus payments. Who knows blizzard may have to pay for a cab to drive them from the winners house to blizzcon.

I feel jacked that I have been playing the game for 6 years and I don't get a chance to win cause i'm in canada. Thanks Blizzard.

Two people out of all of the choices and both in California, one within fifteen minutes driving distance and the other within two hours driving distance? For a contest that Blizzard would have had to pay travel expenses for?

I didn't participate in this contest but that's just...

California is a large state. It shouldn't be that surprising that 2 of the winners are from there.
