Title: Powerball And Youngstown
Post by: jay on January 08, 2016, 05:44:15 AM
Wouldn't it be nice if a resident of Youngstown hit the Powerball and then decided to spend a portion of the winnings fixing up the neighborhoods in the city?

It would be nice to hit-but if I do the lottery commission recommends not telling anyone, so sorry I can't let you know if I win.  :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

There was a story on the TV news this morning.  Many people from Canada are coming to the United States just to purchase Powerball tickets.  The game has become a tourist attraction.

I hope groups of workers win--I love when a bunch of factory workers hit-people that really need it-

With the prize now over 1 billion dollars, a Youngstown winner could buy the entire city.

I guess you have to play to win to dream about your dreams.

One volunteer group in Youngstown is awaiting the next Powerball drawing.  A fellow volunteer purchased one ticket; and if the ticket hits, he will share the winnings with all of the other volunteers.
