I didn't win the $290 million dollar lottery.

[Kev]

Much to my dismay the $290,000,000 dollar jackpot that should have been mine went to some other sap in Mass.

I really could use a new car, and a luxury motoryacht, a Lear jet, a firetruck (A firetruck? Hey its my money) a pimped out Escalade, a Cadillac with stearhorns on the hood, a big gold and diamond studded clock that i would wear around my neck like Pimp Daddy, a ranch in Montana, a chalet in Whistler, a mansion on the beach in Maui, a Cigarette racing boat, $1400 dollar bed sheets like Jessica Simpson, Italian shoes, Versace suits, a green marble walkway that leads up to my house with KEV emblazoned in it, a bunch of horses some being purebreed racing stallions (Not to ride i just think horses are a beautiful animal) my own massuese, hair stylist, financial adviser(NOT!!!! I just spent money on a 1 dollar ticket and received $290 million in return. Less taxes. How brillant is that?) Owe if we could dream........... --- Kev

Maybe if you work really hard, take back all your Aqua Velva and cooking wine empties, get 40 jobs....etc you will be able to do all that shit.

Or just marry Oprah.

Kev, you wouldn't want to have won. You would be constantly wondering if we all loved you for you or your money.....

Don't feel bad Kev, think of it this way you didn't lose $290 million you saved yourself $87 million in taxes.

PS I was curious, since you need a social security number to collect large prizes are Canadians even eligible to win these big US lotteries. We might end up with an invasion from pissed off Americans if a Canadian ended up with all that $$$.

Anyone can play Sir.......... I never heard of needing a Social Security Number to claim large prizes. Where did you here that? --- Kev

On the Mega Millions website it says to check the state lotteries sites for collecting prizes. On the state lottos sites I read it says you need proof of social security number to claim prizes over $600. Here is the rules for claiming prizes.

Washington State also requires a social security number on the claim form. I didn't check all the states but I would assume they are all similar. It would really suck to win a big jackpot only to find out they won't let Canadians collect without a social security #. You'd be screwed unless you have American friends or relatives you trust to collect the money for you.

In FAQ........... it says this.

10. QUESTION: Can non-residents play the game? If so, how do they collect?
10. ANSWER: Yes, anyone 18 and over can purchase any Lottery product at any agent location in the state. All players can collect their prizes at the same locations listed in question four. Additionally, Season Tickets can be purchased directly from any sales agent while in the state. Most season tickets can be purchased from out of state, by calling l-800-222-TKTS. The ticket can be registered in the owner's name by completing and returning the registration form to the Lottery. PLEASE NOTE: Mega Millions Season Tickets CANNOT be purchased via phone from out of state.

The first line..."Yes, anyone 18 and over can purchase any Lottery product at any agent location in the state." ...anyone 18 and over can purchase any Lottery product... It doesn't say like some lotteries corp.where it specfically states that a resident of a certain state/Province are only eligible to play. I think the need for a Social Security Number is for ID purposes only. Hmmm i need to look into this further.

And i have family in the good old USA. --- Kev

Don't worry, you are still here for a reason.

If I won $290 Million I'd buy the tax department and fire anybody that tried to collect any taxes from me. Oh yeah, and I'd buy a firetruck too, cool idea Kev!
