Have you or do you know anyone who has won the lottery?

The Cali Lottery is up to 110 mil. Damn that would be nice.

I had a guy I worked with that won $500 on a $1 scratch and win. What was funny about it was that he talked and talked about it untill everyone was tired of hearing about it. Well he went to the bathroom at work and lost the ticket that he was showing off. No one would fess up to finding it.

I hit a free ticket on a scratch off once. Does this count?

Well I ended up winning a whopping $9. 3 out of 6 numbers. Not very good considering I spent $10 on the tickets.

One person won the $110 mil jackpot.
