I am very happy for them. But, I still don't understand why they have to be identified

This is just a prime example to always buy a incorrect lotto ticket because you never know if it will be the WINNING ticket; imagine if he said no and return it. CONGRATULATIONS!! What a way to bring in 2010

ohiopick3: I hope that the Anderson's remember what the ticket purchase was intended for and include the stocking stuffer people in their big win. That's what it was all about in the first place. A gift to all of them.

Seeing as he was going to buy the stocking-stuffers for people he cares about, I'm sure they will be taken care of. He seems like that kind of guy .

True, True, True

Congratulations to them! I always look at this type of thing as it was meant to be too many coincidences for it not to be. It gives me hope multiplied! I won today too, a replay from my fantasy five and a hefty $2 from Super Lotto Yeah!

Of course I plan to give it right back plus more $$$$ since my 5 draw replay ran out yesturday and I have to get a new set.

Tuesday's not a bad name Joe. If you consider they could have named her Thursday.
