Six months ago it was warm outside, surely they washed their shirts more often then their coats.

HAPPY SUNDAY EVERYONE.........12/11Funny, but sometimes people purchase the ticket, enroute to or from the store, and stick them in their pockets, with the lose change, realizing the ticket is there much later, after unconsciously feeling in that pocket looking for the car keys, or door keys, or after not having worn that Coat for several weeks...........The ticket becomes lose change or like a store reciept

MO might be alone among MUSL members in that respect, but Florida and several Mega Millions states start the clock with the drawing as well.

MO winners have 60 days from the DRAWING in which to choose cash; otherwise they would be stuck with annuity payments.

I'm looking at the left of the screen, seeing $64.8M tax free cash dollars for Euro Millions. Bet your two youngest children, I hit and there will be no waiting for the expiration date to claim that money. I'd be on a plane next Friday night

PB is still waiting for the Missouri, November 2nd $31M, winner to come forward. I think the timeline for finding a lawyer has long passed. Probably a newbie who threw it away or has no idea of the value.

Same thing happened in Spartanburg, SC...someone won $500,000 from Powerball and has until the 23rd I think to 'fess up. What a shame. Probably washed the ticket in the laundry...talk about laundered money .
