Hey gang, what’s the date today?

It's April 1st.

And this story started TWO DAYS AGO.

AND IT'S COMPLETELY TRUE.

Here is the article from the Wichita News Site.

Lightning Strike Survivor Feels Lucky To Be Alive

"Around 9:30 p.m., as a severe storm moved through Wichita, a man was struck by lightning in his back yard in the 6300 block of east Orme, just southwest of Kellogg and Woodlawn."

"The victim, Bill Isles, was coherent and used an amateur radio to call out for help. The chase coordinator in the KAKEland Weatherplex heard his call on our "ham" radio and called 911. "

But did he win part of the MegaMillions jackpot? That’s the part I’m skeptical about.
