  Well watching the live stream for the Powerball conference i just imagined if that was me for the future winner of a jackpot.. I would be so nervous and might need a drink before i got up there... What would you do if you had to go before press conference if you are the winner?

  It not like they are expecting a state of the nation speech, after all only the winner and those around him life will be effected.  I would accept the check, say "thank you" and leave.

   * you don't need to buy every combination, just the winning ones *

  What would I do before?? I guess I would try to keep my smiling in check...oh heck no I wouldnt I'd just try not to do somersault onto the stage when they announced me as the winner
