The reader can infer that Old Man Warner represents the status quo or the way things have always been.

Old Man Warner is the oldest man in the town he lives in. He has participated in 75 lotteries and strongly opposes those who think that they would not be run anymore in town. He labels such people, which are normally of a much younger age, as "crazy fools".
