I will assure you all that the winner is a very hardworking couple who have struggled like the rest of us. They will use the money wisely. No, I have nothing to gain from this post, only to put minds at ease. Congrats to you.

Ignore ME from Central Texas, this person will get their's... It's really sad that this loser sits in front of the KWTX website all day long typing out his racist, biggoted bs just to get off to the responses this person gets. They're real brave from behind this computer screen...why not come out and say the same things out in the open big guy? No...not brave enough for that...so keep on keepin' on little redneck wussy behind the screen... you'll get yours and we'll all smile :)

To Me, I'm not so thin-skinned as you politically correct types are, and your opinion is insignificant. Whether you like it or not, the area this ticket was sold in is not exactly the nicest section of Waco... and it makes me sick, day after day, to see so many people who are claiming hardships spending all their state money on lottery tickets and malt liquor.

Ditto---I was begining to think the lotto was a fraud. Good to see someone local won.

Posted by: Me Location: Central Texas on Aug 28, 2008 at 03:24 PM
Not likely, Jealous, considering the location the ticket was sold.

Posted by: Happy for you! Location: Waco on Aug 28, 2008 at 02:48 PM
Wonderful. Finally good news for Waco to hear.

Posted by: Capt Fred Location: Waco on Aug 28, 2008 at 02:37 PM
It will be interesting to see how many long lost "relatives" and new friends you will have. Congratulations and may you not be burdened with your blessing.
