VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — You could call it a sweet dream.
A Virginia Beach woman says she dreamed about chatting with President Barack Obama, so the next day she played his birthday — Aug. 4, 1961 — in the Cash 5 daily lottery game.
Simone Christian felt so strongly about it she bought two tickets Oct. 15 with those numbers, so when they hit she received $200,000 instead of the game's top prize of $100,000.
The winning numbers were 1, 4, 6, 8 and 19.
As if that wasn't sweet enough, Virginia Lottery officials tell the Virginian-Pilot that Christian and her husband, Stanley, also won the game's top price in September of 2006.
Christian says she has no plans for the winnings.

Thanks to 'A Reader' for the tip.
Sweet dream!
Although, they should add that she had to have played more than two tix because 8/4/1961 yields more than just the combination she won with.
I would consider that a nightmare ................ that must end 1-20-2013! Yikes!
Sounds a little far fetched & something like the 2 people that "lost" the winning ticket in Connecticut!!!!!!!!!!!
Sweet....
Nice dream and nice workout. Congratulations.
Seems like her system works for her...
the OBAMO FIXED the PROBLEM
WE LUV this kind of "CHANGE"
thank you 4D Lottery Mr. PRESIDENT we want more MONEY
A good bit of CHANGE. no pun intended.
That the reason why you will alway have purple face instead of the GREEN did you read me T-H-E G-R-E-E-N!!!!!
CONGRAT!!!!!! TO CHRISTAN AND HUBBY ON THAT WIN! THE PRESIDENT EVEN HELPING PEOPLE IN THEIR DREAM YOU CAN'T BEAT THAT! SOME OF OUR POLITICANS CAN'T AND WON'T WITH THEIR EYES WIDE SHUT!
Congratulations because Obama's going to get most of it...
????????????????????????????????
"That the reason"
Good for you!! There are soooooo many jealous people on this site. I think they are just frustrated that they have not won anything. OBAMA 2012
Good for her.
The News Report got it wrong.
When you see Obama in your sleep it's not a dream - it's a nightmare.
God bless the Christians though, they look like nice people and I hope they keep on winning.
the obama dream team!
She has gotten that game down pat. Since she won twice in 5 years good luck for her. I hope she enjoy's the money.-weshar75
