Just listening on tvg and they said it was a physical ticket from a teller(thats been discussed) and the person bet $10 on pick-6 tickets and cashed two tickets... thats a pretty good ROI

Oh, thats right, he did have a $4 ticket in there. What, wasn't confident and had to throw in an extra in one of the races?

I'm happy for them looks like either a father and daughter or husband and wife( i can't tell) He looks about 50ish shes maybe mid 30's. They were in the winners circle getting their picture taken.

Oh dear lord, complete dumb luck i love it. Um my dad he uh studies the cards and i pick out names i like. and then we uh heard about the rollover and uh we decided to play. Didn't even watch the races, didn't find out till this morning. The two tickets were a mistake. He only meant to punch one.

Doesnt matter how much you know in this game luck is always involved. Thats what keeps those license plate, address, birthday guys coming back. Godbless them for just showing up and punching a ticket out.

The story about the refrigerator was hilarious. I am happy for them. They seem real nice and down the earth. Glad they won it instead of some syndicate.

Oh i agree, they seem like average people and really for just finding out she won a million she's pretty even keeled. She's actually more entertaining then these two guys. Wasen't poking fun at all. I spent like 6 hours on the card and had 2 winners. She picks names and between her and her dad pound it twice. I love it.

Hope there are some answers coming, the same owner of $2 & $4 tickets hit for
1.1 million.
