Auto workers collect lottery winningsReply
Why limit it to a 60 day vacation? When the days comes that I win a multi-million USD lottery jackpot, I already have a worldwide vacation schedule that will have me visiting different countries ranging in time from 90 days to just over 180 days. My goal would be to play golf in every country I visit, see some of the off track attractions as well as the well known tourist attractions, scuba dive in those areas where there are interesting diving venues, and eat local cuisine in every country (of

NJ family of 8 claims $429.6 million Powerball lottery jackpotReply
Golf is won by the person making the least amount of strokes. I achieve this by not only not owning any clubs, but also by not stepping foot on a golf course to play the game in the first place. This makes me quite possibly the greatest golfer the planet has ever seen. :)

Powerball 'Ultimate Tailgate Party' promotion launched in 18 statesReply
Not much of a prize in my opinion. I'd like to see a Superbowl Tailgate party, along with tickets to the big game. After the big game, 2 rounds of golf. Not in Feb 2014 because the game will be held at Giants Stadium in NJ (it's going to be cold). Feb 2015 the Superbowl will be held in Glendale, AZ. Great weather and plenty of good golf.
