I am glad I am not the only one who noticed this recent trend. This is something that makes you go, Hhhhmmmmmmm! It is high time Illinois gets in on the winning streak. And if that doesn't happen, I plan to make visits to California and Florida and purchase multi-draw tickets at both locations. Hopefully, I can get lucky somewhere.

Great story.

Eula Webb, 75, wanted to get some milk from the store, so she asked her friend Sam Cricci, 80, if he wanted to come along and buy some milk, too.

I wanted to keep him active, she said.

They went to the Associated Supermarket on Fulton Street, got their milk, bought a couple of lottery tickets one for Webb, one for Cricci from a machine, and went home.

Webb scratched her Empire State Millionaire ticket and got nothing. Cricci scratched his ticket and won the jackpot: $1 million.
