Oh man if this had been true I would have run right out to my nearest 7-11 and started partying in the parking lot!

The winner was in my city, it wasnt him, but he did get alot of publicity from the people that did believe him.
The winner was a 19 year old kid named brad.

Probably bull shit, though he did say he bought it in Chino Hills before they announced the ticket was sold there.

If he's lying its the dumbest fucking prank he can pull. From everything I have read, once a person is publicly known as a lottery winner, they become targeted for hustlers and hackers of every stripe.

this is kinda funny actually. the thousands of people who have retweeted him thinking if he was the winner he'd actually give them 200k. People are very dumb.

If I won a substantial amount of money the last thing I'd do us tell anyone let alone the whole internet. The first thing I'd do is have one of those 7-11 carpark parties GAY is talking about.

If I won powerball the only people who would know would be you guys because I'd rub your dirty piss poor noses in it.

A small part of me hopes a nice middle eastern dude won so we can see America go crazy on the internet freaking out about giving a billion US dollars to ISIS.

If only.

The winner was a 19 year old kid named brad.

This is funny but also troubling, I hope he keeps a cool head. Also I wish his name was Larry.

Unless his youth was awful, a 19 year old hasn't suffered long enough to truly appreciate that prize.

so you're going to not only have consensual sex with Active Erica... but you're gonna win the Powerball too?  Boo Johnson tweeted that his homie won it... so who knows at this point.  the winner still hasn't come forward

if this is true, i'm about to adopt the Frank Zappa look as well.  (met this dude once - nice guy)

^ That was a hoax the kid pranked his mom with. Poor old lady. Also, Erik says he's going on Kimmel this Monday to talk about winning. Could Kimmel be the one behind this all along? He has had some pretty damn good videos he created that went super viral. He's a pro. Bragg X Kimmel?

It's almost like people are capable of lying and you should be at least a little harder to trick than, say, a dog.

Dudes ticket was obviously fake. It had 4 extra letters when you'd only have the a line. It's a huge inside joke. But if dude is fucking Erica good for him. That yary family is just good looking all around.
