Michigan woman finds out through Facebook that she won $1 million Powerball lottery prizeReply
Many people around the country believe they never going to hit so they just play for fun and they really don't check their tickets immediately until like weeks or months later because of the odds or that old saying it could never be me or it's fixed I always check my tickets because I heard unbelievable story here in Ohio from a person who works for the lottery that a man called into the headquarters and asked him to check his ticket that he found ball up in his pick up truck!

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.
