Abstract
These notes provide a detailed insight on the interplay between crossing numbers of graphs and random geodesic drawings, and try to explain a relationship with the main fundamental open questions about crossing numbers of graphs. A very general class of geodesic drawings on the sphere attaining the Hill bound is presented.
