BOISE, Idaho - Someone donated a $30,000 winning lottery ticket to the Idaho Foodbank.

The ticket was tucked inside an envelope without a return address Wednesday, Foodbank Director Roger Simon says.

Idaho Lottery officials say it's first time they know of someone donating the entire amount of a winning ticket to a charitable organization.

The Foodbank will use the money for its children's programs.

The Stinker Station that sold the winning ticket also gave the food bank $300 from the money it got from the commission for selling the winning ticket.

you in a bad mood today, eggman?

Not me ... I was merely pointing out to him that his "stinker station" was behind him, in his pants.

Must I now explain bathroom humor to you grasshopper?
