Mega Millions Mystery: Maryland woman claims to have $105M ticket, but no one's come forward

A McDonald's worker claims to have one of the three winning tickets selected in Friday's drawing, but a Maryland lottery official said early Monday that no one has produced the winning ticket. Making matters even murkier, the woman later seemed unsure if her numbers matched the $656 million jackpot.

Each one-third share of the record-breaking prize is worth $105 million after taxes, and officials have said winners were drawn in Kansas, Illinois and Maryland. Neither of the other two winning ticket holders has stepped forward, either.

"We can't wait to greet the winner of this world-record setting jackpot," said Maryland Lottery Director Stephen Martino. That ticket was purchased at a 7-Eleven in Milford. The McDonald's worker who claims to hold the ticket, Mirlande Wilson, 37, has said she bought tickets for 15 co-workers, but that the winner was bought separately and she won't share the money.

I see the McD's worker getting sued.

Are these people that get pools together stupid or something?  When we have a pool at work, copies are made of all the tickets that were bought for the pool and several people have one.

Tell my boss I quit--over the phone.  From my suite at the Bellagio.

Yep, that one right there. Except no Bellagio. We ain't real fond of Vegas as it is.

But IMMEDIATE retirement. Everything else requires a plan.

And I like what Kyle Ricky said - disconnect the phone and run and hide. Every schmuck on this side of Mars would be gunnin' for my ass.

I would keep working.  I think if I just laid around it wouldn't be good for my ginger soul.  I like to work and think it makes me healthy.  Plus it would be nice to just not have to worry about bills and enjoy my work.  I do love my job though so there's that.

Oh, believe me, I have PLENTY of stuff to do that keeps me busy. I just want to do it on MY time -- not theirs.

Sitting around counting piles of money is the kind of thing that JohnnyReb said -- it's a very lonely task and one that I ain't cut out for.

Set folks up, give a lot away, and then get busy doing the stuff that I wanna do -- which is makin' music.
