An adult bookstore in Michigan that offers pornographic movies and sex toys has also sold a winning lottery ticket worth $128 million, MyFoxDetroit.com reports.
Uptown Bookstore in Highland Park, Mich., sold Saturday's only winning Powerball ticket, according to the station.
The ticket was the only one to match all of the numbers of the multimillion-dollar jackpot -- 7, 12, 23, 34, 38 and 33.
The winner has not yet come forward. According to Powerball rules in Michigan, winners cannot remain anonymous when they claim their win.

Tell the wife or... cash the ticket.... Tell the wife or... cash the ticket.... Tell the wife or... cash the ticket....
Don't rush me. I'm thinking, I'm thinking!
*LOL*
With a winning $128 million ticket, I think most wives would understand. :-)
For $128 million, the wife can get over it.
If she won’t, the new wife will.
I thought I would feel foolish writing that and you know what? :-)
“Honey, Look What I found.... I think it may be that winning ticket they were talking about on the news.........”
In Michigan she’ll get half anyway.
i bet she’ll put out now, though!
“I thought I would feel foolish writing that”
You may be wiser than you know. It’s fairly well documented that lottery winners are depressed, lazy, goodfornothing sad-sacks.
Dirty Old Man has a $128 Million dollar pork chop to tie around his neck. This is going to attract every floozie within a 1000 miles trying to work some money outta the guy.
No matter. It's so much damn money...Just split the thing...Then divorce wifie and spend it on your girlfriend.
lol That was my first thought.
That’s because people who have earned millions worked for it, created it, and even when they’ve amased wealth, continue to work and create.
Lazy folks who win set right to work spending. The happiness would come from creating and building - whether that’s investments, a business, a farm/ranch/nursery, etc. You have to feed your sense of accomplishment - no one feels good just being a rich bum.
Really....?
Do you know all the lottery winners....in the U.S.A.? Do you have some scientific evidence to support your statement?
Or are you just remembering some dumb ass cases...of moron's winning millions?
I was doing research!
I'm willing to test that theory.
That may be the reasoning the Canadian couple who won $10 mil employed when they gave 98% of their winnings away. They said they didn't want the changes the money would have brought to their lives. If that's the case, why play?
There's a lot to be said for earning what you have as opposed to the easy-come variety.
“Honey, it was pouring rain, and I ducked inside this business to stay dry, and I needed change for the bus and had to buy something, and the only thing I saw that I could buy was this ticket....”
Nice think about having $128 million is that you could blow $28 million on babes and still have $100 million.
Did the winner look like this?
