$39.3 million Classic Lotto jackpot won by Ohio player after nearly two years without a winnerReply
The winner has yet to come forward .....................Maybe the winner is waiting to make sure he is not the winner of a certain 2 billion dollar Powerball prize, before going to lottery headquarters. That way, he only has to make one trip. Good luck tonight OR Wednesday to the Lottery Post family.

North Carolina Veteran "blessed" by $1 million lottery prize from second-chance drawingReply
I learned something new. Thank you for this explanation. It is most appreciated. Now I know that WHEN I win my Million dollar prize, I won't be pissed off at Lottery Headquarters and causing a big scene or ruckus knowing my check is about $200,000 lighter than I thought. I'm sure my story would have wound up at USA Mega if I was making an ass of myself. Lol.

New Jersey woman to take legal action against Atlantic City casino after being refused $2.5M payoutReply
A few years ago a poster showed a Florida scratch off ticket with $1 million under a number 1 that matched the winning numbers. They went on to say they drove a couple hundred miles to lottery headquarters and validate the ticket only to learn it wasn't a winner. Someone on LP pointed out eleven was under the number 1 and they probably scratched off one of the 1 . Anyone that ever cashed a scratch off or an terminal ticket should know there is a bar code with the exact value of any ticket.

Canadian man claims record $64 million Lotto 6/49 jackpot right before it expiresReply
Well, well, well, and here I am checking my tickets every morning after the previous nights draw. You know why? Because I don't want to miss out on earning on my winnings. The $47.26 M would have earned the winner $2.5 M in interest if the money was invested in US 12 month treasury bills at 5.3% That is why if I win the jackpot I won't wait for 6 months or one year. I will be at the lottery headquarters the next week to collect my winning

$1.7 billion in combined jackpots, as USA multi-state lottery games peak togetherReply
It seems like when they jump up the jackpot around noonish. They're still not open yet in Headquarters from what I gather. Mr. Obsessive Compulsive (a bit) called the Colorado Lottery because they had the jackpot off about $100 million dollars. They did fix it on their website. Then two days ago the news here had the wrong jackpot. Said $997 million. Facsimile them; this time they didn't correct it next half hour but 6 p.m. news was correct.

Accusations of "disturbing" new claims procedures after Allwyn sends investigator to winner's homeReply
That is interesting. When my wife won $2,600 on a Pick 4, she went to the local lottery office, which is also Lottery Headquarters in my state. They had her do paperwork and show ID and that was it. They cut her a check, gave her a W2G, and she was on her way. I bought the ticket for her and had to do some digging to figure out where I bought it and they didn't even ask! I haven't won big on a scratcher yet so I don't know what they do with those. I hope to find out one day.
