No way Craig. Regardless of interpretation, If one person buys one ticket, and the other 999 tickets are all sold, in the first round he has one chance out of 1000 to win any of the five identical prizes. After that prize is gone, the rest of the 999 individual ticket holders each have one chance in 999 to win one of the four remaining identical prizes. There is only one of five identical prizes available for each round, with only one less ticket holder in the running with each round. I haven't seen the ad, and I like Famous, but if they are describing a 1/200 chance of winning in a one-prize-per-drawing from a pool beginning with 1000, then it's misleading.
