If it ain't one vice, it's another.
On Thursday, the soon-to-be starting North Dakota lottery had to send stickers to merchants to cover up an embarrassing glitch -- a toll-free number on the lottery's red ticket terminals that directs callers to a phone-sex line.
The number is for retailers who have lottery questions, and not intended for public use.
However, the number was answered by a recording that gave callers a second number to call, which advertised "live, one-on-one fantasy talk."
Liz Brocker, a spokeswoman for Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem, said stickers bearing the correct number were distributed Thursday. The first number erroneously listed an 800 prefix, when the correct prefix is 877, Brocker said.
