The people in The Hunger Games eventually stand up against the government and fight for what is right.  In "The Lottery", on the other hand, no one fights against the ritual and they let the same terrible thing happen every year.  Throughout the entire story, but especially on page 4, it is often said that others are thinking of giving up the lottery.  People like Old Man Warner just keep saying that anyone who thinks they should quite the lottery is a "Pack of crazy fools..." (page 4).  This shows that even when people think that the ritual in "The Lottery" should be ended, nobody continues to stand up and fight for what they believe, unlike in The Hunger Games.

Another differing reaction to the rituals is when the character in The Hunger Games react to the ritual taking place in a very somber way, whereas most of the people in "The Lottery" don't take the ritual as seriously.  In the scene we are shown of The Hunger Games, the drawing is very serious and  emotional.  On page 2 of "The Lottery" it says, "...she said to Mrs. Delacroix, who stood next to her, ad they both laughed softly."  In the next few pages, people joke around during the lottery and act like no one is going to die later.  This is different from the people in The Hunger Games in the sense that they act very somber and serious about the fact that their family or friend might die.

Both places start out by accepting the rituals.  At the beginning of The Hunger Games, all the districts accept the Hunger Games and let the system run it's course. In "The Lottery", people simply go along with the tradition. Page 4 says, "There's always been a lottery..." Although this is a very simple statement, it shows the simplicity of how people go along with rituals and traditions without thinking about how they affect the people around them.

Another similar reaction to the rituals is when the people who are some of the most affected by the ritual react in a negative way.  In The Hunger Games, Katniss reacts in a way of fear and worry to her sister being chosen. On the last page of "The Lottery", it says, "It isn't fair, it isn't right,' Mrs. Hutchinson screamed..." Mrs. Hutchinson reacted out of fear for herself whenever she "won" the lottery. Both of these reactions are similar because the people who are being affected most (Katniss and Mrs. Hutchinson) react in similar ways and react for one main reason: fear.

In "The Lottery", whoever gets the paper with the black dot will be stoned and has almost 0% chance of surviving.  In The Hunger Games, the tributes have a chance of surviving and being able to return home to their family.  In "The Lottery, men are treated as superior to women.  Page 3 says, "Glad to see your mother's got a man to do it."  This indicates that men are in some way better than women.  In The Hunger Games, the men and the women all have an equal chance of being chosen in the drawing.

In both rituals, everyone comes to a central meeting place for a drawing that can determine life or death for people/ a person in the village/district. The first page of "The Lottery" says, "The people of the village began to gather in the square, between the post office and the bank, around ten o'clock..." In The Hunger Games, everyone meets in the center of town.  They all come together for a drawing that will determine who (or multiple people) will die.
