In the Lottery the quote "They say that over in the north village, they're talking of giving up the lottery." Old Man Warner snorted. "Pack of crazy fools," (The Lottery)" shows that some people who like the lottery shame the ones that don't lead to people not wanting to speak up, and because Old Man Warner has been there for a long time, we can assume that people, especially the younger ones, might be intimidated or even look up to him.
