Weird, I don't know what I saw on the Mega Millions site.

Cool, I actually got 3 numbers -- 2, 4, and 46. I hit the lottery! $7

Winning numbers for 3/30/2012:

2 4 9 19 34 44


I got the 2 and the 4 on my sole lottery ticket for the year, but that's it. Not a millionaire.

That's a mish-mash of tonight's and Tuesday's. Correct ones are above.

I also got the 2 and 4, not even on the same line. Eh, it was $5 I just would have spent on ice cream anyway. I just spend a minute amount when jackpots get really big, as a daydream of sorts.

I hope no one (outside of OH) won, but the odds of that are pretty long.

Edit: Oh, cool, Sammy. When I recognized I didn't have all of them I was hoping for maybe the $7 one to recoup the ticket cost, but as you saw, feh.

Actually, I paid the extra $1 for the Megaplier. The Megaplier number was 3, so I guess I won $21.

1050% return on your investment is impressive!

The hangout should buy a bunch of tickets, and if we win buy the O's.

looks like someone down there needs to put together a group of investors.

Was sold at a 7-11 on Liberty Road.

Somewhere out there a Tommy Lasorda, Lou Gehrig, Michael Jordan, Ubaldo Jimenez, Jeremy Guthrie and LeBron James (on the Cavs) fan is really really really rich.

Funny, the first thing that occurred to me was Billy Smith, Earl Weaver, Tippy Martinez, John Lowenstein, and Mike Flanagan.

I can't believe they didn't mention the [$2] winning ticket that was sold to me at a Royal Farms in Columbia. The wife and I are currently deciding whether to invest our $2 winnings or splurge and buy some sort of luxury item.

I had big plans to take my winnings and immediately contact Cal about joining and making Angelos an offer he couldn't refuse. But alas, it didn't happen. At least it prevents a big argument with the wife!

[weams]

Alright. Confess. Which one of you got it.

Loser. I won $3.

Yea someone in Baltimore won, here's hoping give Angelos a call. However I think it was won by 3 people and they each get 214 million before taxes. Aren't the O's worth 200 million?

Maryland's second wealthiest man won the jackpot.

Gaithersburg, MD— This morning lottery officials were pleased to announce that one of the three winners in last night's Mega Millions has come forward. That lucky person is Paul Horner from Baltimore County, Maryland. He is the winner of Friday's world record $640 million jackpot. Mr. Horner won by correctly matching all five numbers and then also the Mega Ball.

Most people would be ecstatic about their new found riches, but not Mr. Horner. As it turns out he was already Maryland's second wealthiest resident. With this new lottery win people are speculating that he'll now be the richest person living in the state of Maryland. Mr. Horner made most of his wealth on Wall Street. Last year's tax return show him reporting a little over $900,000,000 and because of some questionable accounting he only paid 2% in taxes.

On Wall Street his nickname is "The Gutter". Bob Jenkins of Fidelity Mutual said, "He basically buys up a company, fires everybody, puts them all out on the street, then when the stock price goes up he sells everything and just walks away. He's such an a*shole. We all just love him here."
