Sorry to hear that you have had such bad luck with the ladies sir. I think that if you really love someone, then you can make it through any thing. Even 30 + years in fact. Love is a gift from God, that's the real blessing in itself. Best of luck to you in the near future.

The odds of being with one person 30 years are slim to begin with.

I got a feeling they'll be just fine.

I speak from experience, because I've actually been married to a few crazy wimmins.

They drive you into seclusion long before 30 years is up.

They also make you drink.

Heavily.

In fact, I'm gonna have one right now just from thinking about it.

They may have beat the lottery odds but the odds of them remaining a loving couple are slim.

The thing that had ME rolling was the fact that the first thing the article mentioned was the winners were gay. You never see the headlines Straight couple from [insert location] wins jackpot . HAHAHA Just found it funny.

Congrats to the happy couple.

I stuck my ticket into this machine and it read $50 million, he said. I rubbed my eyes and the first thing I said is, 'Holy s***.'

Canadians must now have a lottery ticket checking system that by-past the clerks.

Congratulations to the Vancouver couple on their 30th anniversary next month. The even sweeter deal is -- their winning is tax free. Yes, Virginia, there is a santa claus.

Yet another BIG Canada lottery jackpot win!

It was uplifting to me to read that each person listed on the huge promo lottery check resigned from their job without much delay. This is big compassionate action!!! It can create peace of mind, and allow for two people who need income to have a chance at employment.

By Todd Northrop

A gay Vancouver couple who are marking their 30th anniversary next month will have plenty to celebrate after winning a $50 million lottery jackpot.

Kurt and Claude Blanchette-Ebert claimed the winning ticket for last week's Lotto Max draw on Tuesday in front of media.
