Here's a tip...if you take the time to play the lotto, remember where you ticket is kept, and LOOK AT THE NUMBERS!
Our station news guy ran across this story..A Colorado man that Lottery officials only identify as Paul T. bought a Poweball ticket on January 11, stuck it in his pocket and seemingly forgot about it.
Turns out he hit on five of the numbers and suddenly that little piece of paper was worth $2 Million. He was still able to cash it in and it's good, because Paul's family have gone through three major surgeries in the past year, he's got a kid in college, and he'd really like to retire soon.
Congrats Paul!
