Woman loses winning Powerball ticket

Definitely a solid 10.0 on the "Suck" scale.

After news of Battleâ€™s police report spread Monday night, about 30 people wielding flashlights walked through snow and braved frigid temperatures to try to find the ticket in the store parking lot and nearby bushes.

â€œI decided to come back to see if I could find the winning ticket,â€ said LaVerne Coleman, 57. The South Euclid woman said she would keep the millions if she found the ticket.

I simply don't understand someone with that mindset. How could she keep that money knowing damn well who bought the ticket? Legal or not?

How about you? If you found it, what would you do?
