Ticket bought at Michigan porn shop worth $129M

November 12, 2010 9:41pm ESTLANSING, Mich. — A group of friends and family is obscenely rich after winning a nearly $129 million jackpot with a lottery ticket bought at a Detroit-area porn shop. And some of the money will be devoted to sacred purposes.
Mike Greer, a member of the group, came forward Friday to claim the Powerball winnings on behalf of the others, who chose to remain anonymous. Greer - who said only that the group has more than two members and fewer than 100 - indicated some of the riches will be going to a church.
"The only thing I can assume is that the Lord trusted us to do certain things with the money that He bestowed upon us," he said. "That's the only thing that I can gather."
