It must be the lucky name. I wonder if he used a lottery system to choose his numbers. I think I will hit the jackpot too using the system that I'm having now.

Is everybody named Joe in New Jersey? lol

And Joe Garafalo sounds italian. I wouldn't doubt if he is part of the Italia Mafia. I heard that the mob chases down lottery winners, could be the conspiracy to why winners go broke in such a short period of time.

Joe will need to go on a diet after that vacation cruise. The buffets on the cruises are so insanely good and fattening!!! You're surrounded by water, so you can't go anywhere. Expect to gain at least 10 pounds

Besides being a quick pick (for the the winning numbers), he also spent $10 on this draw according to a news article.

I wish when the winners turn in their tickets that they would tell us if it was self-pick or quick pick and at what time they were sold. Usually quick picks are the winners and it's always sold early am hours or in the evening a few hours before the draw. I'm kinda curious, if anyone know, let me know

Was it a quick pick or his own number? I'm always curious to find out that information. I feel like Joe. I know I'm going to win, but just don't know when it will happen. I hope it's soon. I'd love to plan an amazing cruise too.

Congrats to Joe Guiseppe Garafalo!

I wonder if he and his wife will show up on Housewives of New Jersey? I think all the men on that show are named Joe. Or pretty close.

Lottery Post — Fri, 24 May 2013 11:53:00 GMT

Apparently it's lucky to be a guy named Joe from Tinton Falls, N.J.

For the second time in just 14 months, a Joe who lives in the Monmouth County town (population 18,000) has stepped forward to collect a major lottery jackpot.

On Thursday, Giuseppe Joe Garofalo claimed his half of the $198 annuity jackpot from last Friday's Mega Millions drawing. He bought his ticket at Kwik Farms in the Monmouth County town.

The other winning ticket was sold in Farmville, Va., a rural town west of Rich... [ More ]
