The real winner of the Powerball lottery: a troll

Related Topics: Lottery, Powerball

This past Wednesday night, the majority of Americans including myself, were mindlessly paying attention to Powerball’s biggest lottery draw in history. Standing at a whopping $1.5 billion, it’s no wonder why this particular payout was at the forefront of many conversations over the past several weeks. It was announced that three winning tickets were purchased by individuals across the country. Ranging all the way from Munford, Tenn., to Chino Hills, Calif., each winner had every reason to lose their minds once their numbers were drawn. Regardless of the widespread disappointment for the remaining lottery gambling hopefuls, some saw an opportunity that would keep the discussion going even after the numbers were drawn.
