Wet myself seems like a perfectly good option that wasn't mentioned.

Its all well and good for me to claim I'll be calm and stoic, the same way I act superior in the checkout line while all my healthy food is being rung up, knowing I have a bag of Snickers waiting for me in the car.

I can do the perfectly composed genteel lady bit in the office, but I'll be screaming like a deranged banshee in the car. I'm only going to win once, might as well do the full gamut of emotions... [ More ]

I'd give ticket to my two kids and let them deal with all the BS that comes with winning. For a price of course! Lease me a new car every year, buy me a condo on a golf course, and say $4,000 a month. But that's if win is ten million or more. Right now I'd settle for a couple nice pick-4 hits.

Just my luck, at that very moment, my wife would wake me up to go to work.

A jackpot win for myself would be far too complicated to relegate it to a trust. Also, I'm not too concerned with people knowing who I am. I would probably not stay in Oklahoma for much longer.

They're just telling me something I already know, so once the ID is provided and signatures

obtained, it is a relief knowing it's on the way to processing and validation. The waiting is the

hard part but the great feeling that comes with winning is good to fall asleep with each night.

Just go in, don't talk to anyone you don't need to...there are enough people who want to know

what you won but don't worry about being rude, you will not see them again.

One option that isn't listed... [ More ]

If I drive two hours to the claim office I am 100% positive that I have a winning ticket. At that point it is all business.

If I'm at the Lottery Claim Office: The Ticket has already been Verified at the Lottery Agent

I'd be relieved

but we would have a lot of paperwork left to do so id be focused on that. I can do small talk, i'd be polite but i wouldnt drag it on.

I'm with you. I'll be relieved when I put in the claim, but the happy dance will begin when the check hits my bank account.

I agree with Redd55, or split the winning ticket 50/50 with an old relative if they agree to claim it and not mention my name at the lottery office.

I'm not much of a talker, but I would be my usual pleasant self and exchange small talk. I'd probably say a stupid joke or pun, and then get to getting things done.

I'm not looking to become friends with anyone while I am there.

I just want to get in, get out, and get on with it

I'll smile when it's in my bank account. Before that, anything can happen.

This is exactly how I feel. As far as anonymity, I wouldn't get any as Oklahoma would not allow it. I would just get the ticket turned in, breathe a sigh of relief and begin the rest of my life.

Relief maybe? It would be a pain to carry around the winning ticket, what if you lost it

I'd say: Hurry up, I want to get out of here! No photos and no questions. I'm afraid for my safety. You have no permission to quote anything I say to the media. Step on it

When you bring your winning ticket to the Lottery Office. How would you react at the moment the officials place your ticket into the validation machine and it is verified? What would you do? Scream? Cry? Kiss your loved ones
