DEARBORN, MO.Cindy Hill, a laid-off office manager who lives in a small town in Missouri, called her husband Thursday with urgent news that would change everything: "We won the lottery."
"What?" he asked.
"We won the lottery," she repeated. But Mark Hill, a 52-year-old mechanic who works at a meat processing plant, is the kind of person who carefully checks the prices for everything he buys, and he needed proof. This is the "Show-Me State" after all.
Once lottery officials learned the Hills' identities Thursday, they were whisked away from their home and kept hidden until Friday's press conference. At a hotel, Mark Hill realized he left some sundries at home and needed to pick up some items.
