This video was such an absolute joy to watch. Probably my favorite part is the idea of the lucky person who after being devastated by Hurricane Ann in Florida immediately winning the Mega Million prize. That is simply astonishing. Yet another informative and funny video Kate.

Record $1.9 billion Powerball drawing delayed until TuesdayReply
i have been saying this for some time. We are not getting a live draw. Instead we get a video that has been edited . Watch the last video before this one . The whole background disappears and the announcer seems to not even notice. My guess is they are pulling videos from a draw previously done.

VIDEO: What happens when you win the lottery?Reply
Kate .......Thanks for the video, really enjoyed it. At some point in the future I would love to see a video from you guys showing us the top 3 states which have produced the most Powerball and MM winners. I realize that my state (Tenn.) is no where near the top, but it would be fun to see which states have the most winners over the last few years. Thanks.

Texas lottery thief caught after attempting to cash stolen ticketsReply
Tickets in the bin are already activated within the lottery system, and they know which stores have the jackpot tickets. The tickets if stolen, they are flagged within the system, and the person cashing them is arrested. Their face, vehicle, and license plate number is on video surveillance. The lottery has people who look at the store's video surveillance as required.

South Carolina lottery winner where are you? $1.5B still unclaimed, and clock is tickingReply
In this day and age of video surveillance, with the time/date stamp of the ticket purchase, the store's video should have captured the person buying the ticket (or narrow it down to a few possible people).

Georgia Lottery denies millions in prizes to winners of scratch-off gamesReply
Seems to me that if they can check security videos to find out that the son had checked the ticket to verify if it was a winner, that they can pull the video footage and see who actually bought the ticket. Every time I have bought a scratch off in GA the clerk always scan it before giving it to me. Couldn't they find the video footage of the actual buyer.
