Always expect the unexpected is my motto.
I've witnessed first hand what can happen to friends when it comes to winning a prize. Back in the early 90's i was working for Safeway and 2 guys in the produce dept went halves on a 20 strip of tickets for the Stampede Dream Home. Each got 10 of the tickets and put their John Henry and info on the tickets. One of the guys did win the Dream Home and the other friend tried to sue saying he was entitled to the home also as they shared in the cost of the tickets. The guy that sued lost the court battle and had to pay the other friends court costs. Needless to say the friendship was over.
