A store owner ratted on him. I wonder how that particular relationship went sour. I also wonder how he thought he was going to keep this stuff a secret. Store owners all talk to each other.

So got a few bucks and now jobless!!

Glad GLC got rid of this thorn. Was going to comment on how long GLC takes to pay out folks like me who play when in town and mailing in tickets. But then I realized they probably get many tickets/day so whatever

was quick to throw this one out. Good job.

As I have said before, the biggest threat to the reputation of the lottery, is from the lottery employees. The players are not the problem.
