yesterday afternoon when he stopped to purchase a regular $2 State Lotto ticket at nearby Devil's Peak Multi-Mart.
Staggering Odds
'There was something different about the fella' says store clerk and Veteran Randy Hankin, 'like he was sure he was goin' to win'.
And sure enough he did - for last night every one of Den's numbers came up, at the staggering odds of 16 million to one. State Lotto spokesperson
Rodeo Kline adds, 'He sure was fortuitous; the jackpot stood at only $444,000 yesterday afternoon. Somehow we sold a heck of a lot more tickets
for this guy to become a millionaire.'
A Somebody
In Dennis' own words, "Yesterday I was a nobody, fixing things for folk and making a buck wherever I could. Today I'm a somebody, sitting right
here in my new home, with my new girl on my arm, eating the finest food and drinking the finest lager known to man. Forget heaven man.
I'm living there now."
