And some of the money will be devoted to sacred purposes. A group of friends and family is obscenely rich after winning a nearly $129 million jackpot with a lottery ticket bought at a Detroit-area porn shop. Mike Greer, a member of the group, came forward Friday to claim the Powerball winnings on behalf of the others, who chose to remain anonymous.
Greer stated that the group has more than two members and fewer than 100 who indicated some of the riches will be going to a church. “The only thing I can assume is that the Lord trusted us to do certain things with the money that He bestowed upon us.” “That’s the only thing that I can gather.”
The ticket was purchased inside the Uptown Bookstore or at its outside, walk-up lottery window. Many customers of the adult bookstore in a depressed section of Highland Park buy their lottery tickets without setting foot inside the place and getting an eyeful of its X-rated videos and magazines. The group will take its winnings in a lump sum of $69.6 million instead of annual instalments.
