LANSING, Mich. — For the first time in Michigan Lottery history, two mega jackpot winners will collect their winnings at the same time Friday at Michigan Lottery headquarters in Lansing.
Most public interest will likely be centered on the winner of Saturday's $128.6 million Powerball drawing. That's because of the unique location where the winning ticket was purchased: an adult video and book store in Highland Park.
The location also includes a walk-up window for lottery ticket purchases, and the odds are good the winner will explain that was how the winning ticket was purchased.
The other big winner claiming their prize Friday bought a Mega Millions lottery ticket worth $141 million in the Oct. 29 drawing. The winning ticket was purchased at a convenience store in Gladstone, in the Upper Peninsula region.
Congrats to all the winners.
Well if he/she looks weird we all know that "just walking up" is clearly not the case. but anyway, congratulations to the two big winners.. next time it will be me!
If it was an adult who was at an adult book store, SO WHAT?
What do you mean, SO WHAT?
We demand a freak show!
.........
I'm fairly sure which ever type of porn addict and or other such deviant that shows up @ the lottery office will not disapoint you, rdgrnr
Note to self: Never buy any PB or MM tickets at the local Adult Book Store!
Will he bring his wife?
Will other players start buying their tickets at Adult Book Stores and Peep Shows?
Will the winnings be paid off in quarters?
I'd take quarters ... but only if they're from 1964 and older.
I really can't wait until tomorrow to see these big winners, especially the naugty one!!!!
Friday, November 12, 2010 is good Friday for them! The best of luck to both winners.
Michigan sure was hot in the lottery multi-millions net jackpot claiming realm! It's interesting that both would agree to appearing in person (rather than sending a representative lawyer) tomorrow. Maybe one or both ticket holders will change their plans. Appears that their state tax on lottery winnings is 4.35%; not bad, not great. Add that deduction to the probable 35% federal tax and the wins are still SUPER exciting.
Next door neighbor, Ohio won the jackpot the following drawing! Now, which state's ticket purchaser will win the next jackpot? I'm allowing it to be me.
If they were smart they'd award the prizes inside the porn shop with Jerry Springer handing them the checks and then have somebody fling a chair right in the middle of the ceremony and have the whole thing turn into a big Marital Aid and Lube throwing brawl.
whatta>>>>>>>>out>>>>>>>>>>F@@L>>>>>>>>>>U>>>>>>>uuuuuuuuuuuuuuCANNOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well alrighty then.
By the way, what?
If I won that much money, I wouldn't care who thought what of my side antics...lol
lol
That porn shop also has a window, so you don't even have to go in to buy ticlets! Everyone and their dog is going to start buying tickets from them!
uhuh ...... I hear ya ......
and next on the jerry springer show : Kidzmom
NOw THAT would be a press conference worth watching LOL
Handing the winners two checks worth $268,600,000.00 will make the press conference worth watching.
I agree. If you win that much dough, you've got enough F-You money not to care.
Yep! me and my milllions..Lol
and yes I bet they will have a flood of folk buying tickets there now... there will not be anything but smiles on the news later as they accepted their double checks!!
That's the way it is, Friday, November 12, 2010. Good night and good luck.
i cant remeber the joke, but the punchline was
... you sold them WHAT! that was my thermos.
