One of the three Mega Millions jackpot winners says her winning ticket remains stashed away inside the Baltimore McDonald's where she works. But some of Marlinde Wilson's co-workers think she is telling a Big Lie.
"I left my ticket there, and it's somewhere safe that only I know about," Wilson told the New York Post. "I'm waiting for things to calm down so I can go back to McDonald's and get it. The people [at McDonald's] are too excited. I want their heads to cool down before I go back."
Wilson claims to have purchased one of the three winning Mega Millions lottery tickets. The three winners will each receive a share of the record-breaking $640 million jackpot. If Wilson's story is true, that would mean a $105 million ticket (after taxes) is stashed away somewhere inside the fast food restaurant.
Wilson's co-workers appear to be split in their opinion of her but all who have spoken to the media seem to share some animosity toward the Haiti native. Some of Wilson's colleagues say she is attempting to cheat them out of what should be shared winnings from a pool of lotto tickets 14 of the McDonald's employees purchased together.
And Wilson's manager, identified only as "Layla" by the Post, says she thinks Wilson isn't telling the truth about hiding the ticket inside the McDonald's. "That's impossible. She didn't come back here" after she purchased the ticket, Layla said.

When the difference is between 7.5 million and 105 million (pretax), almost nobody is trustworthy.
They’ll never find it .... she hid it under that one patty of real meat they keep in the freezer.
Maybe a Detroit McDonald's. But it's close.
By the way, any chance this is the same McDonald's where the two black girls beat the tranny into a seizure?
It’s the under the Big W!!!
Or the Golden Arches.
One of my favorite movies!
"You sez der be a ticket wurf $100 million Obama dollaz?!"
"Ain't nuffin' in dere! Weez looked everywhar!"
I’m picturing a lottery ticket hidden in the crack between two counters and, if found, will be so smeared with the syrup of sodas and shakes as to be unreadable.
Indeed, a couple of 40’s and she’s good to go ...
ROFL!
She is going to cause an Obama style riot....If Holders people will cause a fight over some chicken nuggets imagine what will happen when they think a Multi-Million dollar lotto ticket is inside!

“If you give me half your winnings, I’ll miraculously find that ticket. Otherwise, I’m not sure I can recall where I put that ticket.” Just a little strong-arming going on.
I know if I buy a lottery ticket, I stash it away some place where it’s not certain whether or not I will be there in the near future, and where there are numerous other people there around the clock. That’s where I think my ticket is safe and secure.
It’s hard to believe how stupid some people are, and how stupid they think the rest of us are!
Love it...hope the kitty makes it out alive.
If the McDonald’s ends up getting torn apart, I think McDonald’s should sue her.
The trouble is that a McDonald's in Baltimore isn't worth more than one (1) non-winning lottery ticket toilet paper.
I thought Wetson's had closed decades ago.
