Co-Workers Gather to
Celebrate $250,000 Mega Millions Win
56 Kaiser Permanente
employees split second-tier prize
(Baltimore)
– Cameras rolled, shutters clicked and squeals of joy filled the
room at the Kaiser Pemanente headquarters in Lutherville on Thursday
afternoon. WBAL-TV was on hand to capture the moment as the gleeful
group of co-workers expressed their thrill at winning the $250,000
second-tier Mega Millions prize from the May 9th
drawing.
“I’m going to help with my son’s wedding,” said one winner. “I’m
going to Vegas and
Hawaii,” added
another. “I’m buying gas,” laughed one gentleman. The dreams were
myriad, but the sentiments were much the same. Although the 56-way
split amounted to approximately $3,000 a piece, the folks on hand
were delighted with their share.
Wearing Lottery Mega Millions t-shirts and many donning
Lottery caps, the group was all smiles as they posed for pictures
and shared their feelings. Praise was given to Greg Holiman, who
organized the collection of money and purchased the winning ticket.
Though a couple weeks have passed since the win, their enthusiasm
for the Lottery’s Mega Millions dream clearly hasn’t waned as
you could hear, “Whoooo, Let Yourself Play,” reverberating through
the hallways.
The winning ticket was purchased at F & N Crown,
1521 Merritt
Blvd. in Baltimore.
