Powerball, push-up record, Liar, Lair, and more!

Nov 29, 2012 -- 8:50am

There was a huge lottery drawing last night, and two people hit the jackpot! One winner in Missouri and one in Arizona will split the $580 million jackpot. If you bought tickets, make sure you check them for winners because almost 9 million people won something.

 

Last night, University of St. Francis junior Brandon Collofello from Minooka strained his way into the Guiness Book of World Records at halftime of the USF vs. Purdue Calumet basketball game, doing 31 Aztec pushups in a minute to begin the process of raising funds for Save My Starving Children.

 

We played Liar, Liar, trying to pull a fast one on you. But Kellie Adams of Elmhurts saw through the lies, and won a pair of tickets to see Trans Siberian Orchestra at the All State Arena on December 8th!

 

We debuted The List, asking for the top three things you would do if you won a HUGE lottery jackpot. Most people said they'd donate a lot of it, pay off bills, and send their kids to college. Josh's top three was pay off bills, have a mansion built with things like a bowling alley and movie theater inside, and buy all the cool cars he's wanted. Anna's top three were pay off debt, buy a bunch of cats, and have a house built to have room for all her new cats.

 

 

Tomorrow, we'll finish out the work week letting you decide the game you play to win a pair of tickets to see Trans Siberian Orchestra at the All State Arena on December 8th! We'll also talk about the most influential people in history, and how much money you could save by regifting.
