Lived 35 years in a house with a 60 foot high grounded CB radio antenna attached. It was pretty much the tallest thing in the area and 3 miles from the nearest one of those tall TV station antennas. It never got struck that I know of. Since the odds are better for getting struck by lightening than winning the lottery I do not buy lottery tickets.

My brother's house got struck through a TV antenna on the roof. It went down through the cable and into the house wiring. Set his attic on fire. Everyone in the house woke up standing in their beds with their hair standing on end. He was able to put the fire out before much damage was done, but did need to replace all the electronic devices in the house, tv's, radios, computer, etc..
