The huge jackpots for Power Ball and Meg Millions came and went, but even when Power Ball is at a $23 million jackpot it’s nothing to sneeze at. So when we found out the Power Ball jackpot winner from the last drawing was from New Jersey, we were thrilled.
So thrilled that I started thinking I should probably put myself in the best position possible with my newest Garden State bestest friend by reminding the big winner of our rock solid relationship. So here’s my open letter to New Jersey’s latest millionaire.
Dear Bestest Friend, Hey buddy! How have you been? Anything new with you? I’ve been meaning to call you lately, but things have been just so crazy around here.

A third $1-million ticket was sold at an Exxon in Middlesex County.
The $731.1 million ticket was sold in a struggling coal mining town whose biggest previous claim to fame was being the hometown of baseball Hall of Famer Lefty Grove.
Someone bought it at Coney Market, a convenience store in the Allegany County town of Lonaconing, the Maryland Lottery announced on Thursday. The store will get a $100,000 bonus for selling the ticket to the fifth-largest lottery prize in U.S. history.
