you could not blabber about having the winning ticket until ready to cash in...

How do you determine who bought the winning ticket if you only know point of sale?

What information would disclose who among the hundreds if not thousands of customers that visited that site had the winning ticket, or where that ticket might be located?

Yeah I think I am fine unless the kill/rob the multiple thousands of people who bought a ticket in Kingwood.

That limited information would be enough to get a photo of whoever bought the ticket as they give out the store location that sold the ticket to the media and I’m sure the time and date the winning ticket is sold is exchanged somewhere even if not to the media. If you’re willing to pay people off for information it can be done.

If it’s me, we would be out of the house tonight and my wife and I’s phone number would be changed by tomorrow morning before I went to my lawyer’s office.

Your teenage daughter overhears you screaming and posts it to her friends on Instagram before you can get to her phone then in 10 minutes you've been doxxed and your address is on the front page of Reddit.

Just that.

Eta if I win the first thing I do is quietly unplug the router then head straight to a bank with a safety deposit box

Anyone else think it's stupid they don't hold the drawings during the day when Banks are open?

That dog will have you by the balls buying it nicest Pedegree treats, if it realizes you've struck rich.

I call my an old coke guy from years ago. Do booger sugar and hold my gun while barricaded in my apt all night. Go claim tomorrow.

I don't play lotto or any of that. Throwing money away, if you ask me. Just use it to buy a caffeinated soda or some beer, they'll provide you with better chances of striking it rich.

Lottery is more like this, without knowing where to dig.

It’s why I decided against buying a ticket

I'd be paranoid that someone would be waiting in the Lottery Office Parking Lot ready to take me out.

And yet that has never happened in any of the other many biggest US lottery drawings ever.

I'd stay right in my house safe and sound without a concern in the world, other than me doing something stupid to ruin that ticket. I would say I'd sleep like a baby, but I doubt I'd sleep much.

I didn't buy a ticket because of this fear

While the OP is clearly an idiot and went too far with his premise, that probably would be a pretty restless night.

Yeah, that's how I wanna claim my billion dollars = coked up on TV with a bunch of cops and reporters around.

Lemme know when you're going over there, so I can tune in.

Well, the numbers are out.

Have "they" got a location fix on the winner yet or have "they" gone to the Plan B of just attacking everybody in the city in the hopes of getting their hands on the winning ticket?
