Glad it was split three ways. I hope these people do something good with it, and their lives don't implode. Too many bad things happen to people who win.
I didn't buy this time around, but if I ever win, I certainly have plans to do charitable work.

I'm amused by how many more peep play a lottery just 'cuz the pot gets large.
It's like, the odds are eggsactly the same, but only $20mil isn't worth the effort?

Personally, I'd be happy with the smaller sum.

But my taxes are less because of those who buy lottery tickets. Again, I say THANK YOU!!

Kurt

I doubt they lowered your taxes, usually the government just spends more, rarely are taxes actually lowered...:D

Letterman said it best - "aren't the odds about the same whether you buy a ticket or not?"

Letterman is an idiot..

you can not win if you do not buy a ticket. yes the odds are great but for 3 people the odd were not that bid a deal.. they fricken won.. glad to see it was won by at least 3 others..

here's an, what do you call a deer with one eye.. and ideer.. you have to watch lizard lick towing on a&e to get that one..

but my idea is every time the lottery gets 200 million and larger instead on one set of number you pull 2. 500 million you pull 3, 700 million you pull 4..

make the odds better on larger jackpot for sure.
