Some Serious Coin for a Fairfield Couple!

The jackpot was $8, 190, 000 and they've chosen to take it in one lump sum so after taxes, it will ONLY be $4,148,922.  Not bad for an Easy Pick ticket, eh?

Linda  and Bob Von Oesen of Fairfield aren't going to change their lives very much at all, according to an article in the Kennebec Journal.  Because they want to make it easier for Abby, their Cocker Spaniel, to get around in the winter, they will buy a new snowblower.

Tim Poulin, director of operations for the Maine State Lottery said, "They are classic Mainers: grounded, good people."
