in this article, Napolean Elvord was going on with his days when he found out that he may have a winning ticket. but he didn't now at first about this because he got the days mixed up for the announcement of the megabucks winner. the clerks at the store had been asking him if he was the winner. so he went straight home and found the little slip of paper sitting right there on the counter. he picked it up and ran over to the Wisconsin Lottery office to see if it was real. the people at the lottery office had never once been asked whether or not a ticket was a winner or not. they stared at him, a 50 year old man, and asked "is this real?'. he told them his story, and though they were skeptical he had witnesses. they gave him the money and he felt relieved and very wealthy. he decided he would put most of his money in his health account, needing a kidney, and also decided to give money to selling houses for people who need it most.
i thought this article ironic and funny in its own way. i liked the fact he didn't noticed that he had a winning ticket until 3 days after the announcement.
