This was the drawing that lottery officials rushed to NY to make an dvent out of and many, including myself were very skeptical of why.The conspiracy theorists had a field day with it, and lo and behold......over 3 weeks go by and no one comes forward yet.When I buy a ticket I know where it is and I assure you I will not wait 3 weeks if I win. A week maybe, but not 3....... DD

That would be a truly once in a lifetime opportunity frittered away.
