Latest Lotto winner is nonchalant about $120,000
Today fifty-three year old Antonio Guevara walked into the offices of Tropical Gaming Company to claim his Saturday jackpot prize of one hundred and twenty thousand dollars. The father of eight children says he has been playing Lotto for quite a while but never thought he would win big. That’s why he was in no rush to check his ticket following the weekend draw.

?I believe that the money I am getting out of it is the same money that I already spent, so I am getting almost nothing.?

?You don?t seem to be thrilled man.?
Antonio Guevara
?Well that is little bit of money that. I live in a swamp and I am not thinking about building a house, because its swamp I am living on. They give me a piece of land but I don?t think its land. Its swamp really because alligator is floating about the place and something you have London bridge and I have to chase out alligator off the London bridge so I can pass sometime.?
