  1. Saludos al ganador yo seré el próximo.

  2. If you guys won the lottery, what would you guys do with your winnings

  3. Tell the winner that they owe me $20.00 plus interest of 500%

  4. How convenient, in Maine they can remain anonymous…rigged.

  5. Hope it helps them greatly! -AMBASSADOR EDWARDS UNITED NATIONS 🇺🇸🇺🇳✌️

  6. So what if they split the amount into 51 different payments and pulled 51 numbers one from each state that would allow one person from each state to win and increase the number of people buying tickets ….I should get paid for this idea …lol

  7. I guess the winner is already DEAD 😳😳😳 no free money in this era ……______ finito 🤣🤣🤣

  8. I hope they don't come forward.

  9. I hope it was someone who really needed it.

  10. The lottery system is just another thing that hoards money while it dangles an empty promise of wealth, when it could be put back into the hands of people. I said what I said.

  11. It only took 3 months to climb to a billion dollars again?

  12. They still won't be a billionaire if they slowly cash in. They will still pay taxes yearly.

  13. I’m sad it wasn’t me but I’m happy it wasn’t California or New York as usual!

  14. No wonder they won’t come forward. That don’t know them and they are already begging 😑

  15. Imagine losing the winning ticket

  16. Congratulations! Enjoy your life and do it your way.

  17. I pray it was the needy and not the greedy. Congratulations to the winner or winners.

  18. Besides the already extranomical chances and odds against ticket buyers.

    It just gets me how the states with the highest contributions of building that jackpot. In high populations as ticket purchasers were left with even less odds.

  19. "Hookers and cocaine"

  20. Probably a old guy that died of a heart attack seeing the numbers I bet. That's why no one's come forward yet.

  21. Lol shots fired at Steven king

  22. He or.she is gonna eat a lot of lobster!!!

  23. HUR, HUR, HUR, a state that allows anonymity, LET ME THINK HERE.. WHAT SHOULD I DO!? Let me GO PUBLIC with my winnings! BRIGHT IDEA, HUR HUR HUR!!!

  24. But the country broke they make me sick with this crap people that win this should do more for the poor if it was me I would help as many people as I could

  25. I like how the reporter was kind of down playing Steven King being worth 500million.

  26. Funny how billion dollar tickets are always in some small remote towns all a scam or some inside conspiracy

  27. That’s a lie I don’t think Stephen King was born in that town that’s fake news

  28. I just hope he gives it to the town government so they can spend it on things that are important to the community

  29. You are basically subsidizing government. They are going to take 40% tax and how do you know how much

    they raised for this jackpot? 2 billion? 3 billion? And you will never know where that money goes. I just do not

    think that this is a good way to invest your money. Invest in something where you actually see something in return.

  30. If the winner picked quick pick, imagine how you would feel if you bought your tickets from the same store also quick pick but you didn't win sh!t 😬
