    There was a promotion in the Philippines in the 80’s by Pepsi. Where people can win millions of pesos with a set of numbers printed under the caps of Pepsi soda bottles. On the day of a drawing the officials made a mistake of saying the wrong numbers, unfortunately that set of numbers numbered in the thousands instead of the just one that was supposed to win. It ended in a lawsuit that I think still ongoing today.
