Wisconsin couple each win $350,000 in lottery

 

Posted: Aug. 19 2:54 p.m.

MADISON, Wis. — This couple won't have to argue about how to spend their lottery winnings. That's because the Mount Horeb husband and wife each won their own $350,000 jackpots in this weekend's SuperCash state lottery.

Lottery officials said Verlyn Adamson bought his winning ticket at a Mineral Point gas station and his wife Judith bought hers from a convenience store in Barnevald.

Verlyn Adamson is an accountant who says he's a big fan of math puzzles. He claims he developed a secret formula that has helped him make money in the lottery over the last 20 years, although he says his winnings have been small compared to this jackpot.

He said his wife, who is his boss at work, had asked if she could play the same numbers he played.

The winning numbers were 6, 10, 11, 19, 21 and 49.

Yeah, but O WAGS, now they don't have to argue over it.

They each won, they each do what they want with their own 1/2

"He claims he developed a secret formula that has helped him make money in the lottery over the last 20 years"

And anyone who wants that formula need only send $5 and self-addressed, stamped envelope to...

Since there were two winners, didn't they split the jackpot? If just one had won, I think he would have gotten $700,000.

Wow - that's nice that they both won. So, they shouldn't have anything to argue about... but I bet they both get alot of advice on how to spend it!

It must be nice!

No kidding! I will pay the tax! I would be ecsatatic!

at this point i'd be happy just to pay off the vehicles and the house!!!

Oh the things that I would do if I had $35 thousand dollars..................................................... ............................................................ ...........................................sigh.
