Powerball Winner Identified

An Arizona man hit it big when he became the second person to claim his 1/2 of the $585.5 billion dollar Powerball lottery. He wanted to remain anonymous. Arizona's lottery officials said sure- untilllll.... the Associated Press requested to know his name. By law- they had to release it.

I don't know- I kinda feel bad for the dude. I don't want to put his name out there. He's a family man with a small child and is looking forward to supporting the charities he cares about. He wants to remain private- why do we need to know who he is? So we can hate him for picking the right numbers? So we can send him a note asking for money? I would love to win the lotto some day- but I have to admit- if I win I would probably want to remain anonymous too.

What do you think- do we really need to know who he is? If so- why?

Did YOU Win?

There they are--- the lucky numbers. Unless you purchased your ticket in Arizona or Missouri- you will likely not share in the almost $580 million dollar prize. As of this post we haven't heard from Powerball officials if all states are accounted for- but we know for sure- 2 tickets were sold.

Not gonna lie- the first thing I did was wake up and check if someone in New York won. I had a dream about the number 2 and thought- It's gotta be a sign! LOL Well, there were 2s alright- but I needed more than 2's to win.

Were you disappointed not to hit the jackpot? Hey- the new jackpot is $40-million dollars- I'd take that too!
