Judy, Mack and their dog Tillie are starting a new chapter in their lives winning $133,200,00.
Judy woke up Sunday morning and went to the Lottery's website to check her Powerball numbers. She's been playing the same numbers for years using numbers from birthdays... and she purchased this winning Advance Play ticket on her dog Tillie's birthday. This was the last draw on the ticket. She couldn't believe what she was seeing. Had she really won?
With her hand on her chest, she ran into the bedroom where her husband was laying, and stammered. Mack thought she was having a heart attack. "I think we won!" Together they rushed to check the numbers, and yes, it's true... they won the Powerball jackpot, to which Mack said, "That's pretty nice!"
During the press conference, Mack told everyone that "his wife is the most generous person; she's my greatest gift." When asked what their plans are, they both agreed that since they're not "extravagant" people, that they would use much of the money to help those who need it the most citing those who are suffering as a result of the recent hurricanes and fires.
Congratulations Judy and Mack - and to Tillie who just may have brought them the luck they deserve!
