She did not take 30 year payout and opted for the 'smaller' jackpot --- $370,000,000.00.

This was my first thought too. Grandkids, great grandkids, nieces and nephews are suddenly going to be all, "Grandma has always loved me best."

If her family has completely ignored her up until now, I hope she blows it all on bingo and casino gambling, LOL.

Wow. I hope she has some time to enjoy it and doesn't have family and friends coming out of the woodwork looking for a handout.

Hookers and blow!

My initial thoughts did turn to hookers and blow but I don't want to imply that Grandma is a skank. But then again, you never know...

They will. But she has more than enough to go around.

She definitely does, it just makes me sad! I'm a sucker for old people, haha.

[fuckyourcouch]

git her!

I heard on my local radio station that the person behind her in the lottery line let her skip in front of them.. whether or not that's true, who knows.. but wouldn't you be so angry.

I also feel kind of bad for her - hopefully she's a tough ol' broad .... and doesn't wind up dead.

[WOT?*]

Why couldn't it be my 84 year old grandmother? I guess the 69 year old MIL is too young.
