I love seeing these kinds of people win too. By these kinds I am referring to people that can clearly

speak and understand the English language. Yes i know that is not a prerequisite of winning the lottery

but it should be

Thanks for the heads up MW- my advice, always carry an umbrella when rainclouds form overhead.

Maringoman, now you're on the right track!

Thus far, we've learned, from reading these stories of lottery 1st and 2nd prize winners, that apparently the 'lottery fairies' prefer we gambling people display we are risk takers. Consequently, we should display this via gathering at least one month of unchecked online or scratch lottery tickets in: magic cookie jar inside our house, magic desk drawer inside our house or place of employment, or in center console of our magic box with wheels [vehic...

Thanks, mightwin, for this rainy day tickets results feedback. I'll continue being zealous to keep my lottery tickets dry

Maybe the old paper the lottery used would be ok, but I walked out with a ticket when it was raining and it got a couple drops on it I didn't think anything of it. When I went to check my tickets the ink was smeared and the ticket was stuck together.I had to carefully pry it apart and the last line of numbers tore a hole in it along with the bar code being torn in the middle. ......my first thought was if I won a decent amount, I hope the michigan lottery wouldn't give me sh*t about not being ab...

On top of the fridge huh? Reminds me of a female lottery winner years ago who took the winning ticket and put it in a ziplock bag and stashed it in the freezer for * l think months. The catch was this: she presented it to her future husband l think * as a wedding gift. Come to think of it, l will attempt a Google search on this one to refresh my memory. In the fridge mightwin- not on top.

Why are these recently found lottery tickets always in the car? Just where in the car are they stashed? If they in the glove compartment with all the other crap people store in that tiny space- its no wonder they don't find them until months later.l mean how often do people look in their glove compartments- daily, l think not!

So where are they stashed, under the driver's seat, the side door pocket, under the mat? Saying you found it in the car is vague. l would sure like to know David, so th... [ More ]

but it is kinda risky to have the tickets in your car and forget about them. You could unknowingly bring your car to the repair shop and lose big

My restlessness would never allow me to go a day without checking them but it seems to work for others so I might do it one day

This seems like the best way to win a big jackpot.

I have considered buying a ticket or two, and deliberately not checking them, but stashing them some weird place.

Hope the winners enjoy.

Georgia man wins $1M on forgotten lottery ticket

Lottery Post — Thu, 30 Oct 2014 13:03:53 GMT

A Savannah, Georgia, resident realized this week that it was no trick when he found a forgotten lottery ticket that led to a major treat: a $1 million prize.

David Bramble, 42, matched the first five numbers from the July 9 Powerball drawing, winning a $1 million prize.

Georgia Lottery representatives presented Bramble with an oversized check Wednesday at the Georgia Lottery District Office in Savannah.

His lucky lottery ticket went unnoticed for three months.
