LOL. I love it. How fun for the winner. Bet he/she doesn’t sleep a wink. If watching that crazy scene on the new, might be scared to leave his house, though.

I think his page has been removed.
Someone screen grabbed his pic holding winning ticket. Posted upthread.
I can’t believe he posted it...if that’s real.

I played the numbers corresponding to the alphabet positions of the letters T-R-U-M-P 16, T-C-R-U-Z 16, and N-O-H-I-L 16, pretty much betting the farm on 16 as the Powerball.
I was so looking forward to the press conference of this new multi-millionaire (me) when someone would ask “how did you come to choose the winning numbers, whose birthdays were those?”

Right now people are gathering around the 7-11 where the winning ticket was sold. What are they expecting? The winner to show up and pass out money? If that facebook page is really him. I probably shouldn’t be shocked LOL

I bought 5 tickets and didn’t even get one number.
Is there a prize for being skunked?

Thank God! Ok folks breaking news...another powerball winner in Wisconsin - employees from Manitowoc Sheriffs Dept.
I’m glad to hear this. To think 1 person taking the whole pot, not that is bad.
To: Patriot Babe
Cool. Employees from a Sheriff’s Dept. That is very neat.

California does not tax lottery winnings. Bet they wish they did right now.The winnings aren't vested until the check issues. They will probably pass emergency legislation indicating that Powerball winnings are taxable at a 25% rate. Governor Moonbeam will sign it.
