Winners in AZ and MO. Not to shabby of a prize to split. It was about $580 million when it went off.
I would. I'd even train my replacement at work after giving my 2 weeks for "a better opportunity". No need to have all the old high school and college acquaintances come around looking for a handout.
Not remaning anonomous is the worst thing you can do.
everyone you ever met will want a hand out.
citys will want parks
your college will want a new building
everyone else wants your money, putting your wife, kids, and even yourself at risk for ransom, hostage, and other security issues because criminals know you can pay.
if your state doens't allow anonmous winnings, form a trust or an llc or even a music label and claim it under that.

This is exactly why everyone should have a Revocable Living Trust with something other than your name as the name of the RLT.
You win, you put the ticket on the Schedule of Articles, and then have the trust claim it. It also allows for the winnings/annuity to be paid out to the specified beneficiaries in the RLT, once some work has been done.
Since, you'll need a tax ID once you claim those winnings, you'll have to expand the trust to become a taxable entity. In the early stages, all you want to happen is for the trust to own the ticket. Also important to remember is that you want the ticket identified on the schedule of articles by the serial number of the ticket not by the winning numbers.
It's like when my sisters played MASH in middle school. Only ever outcome is sad...
there's a video floating around from a maryland convenience store that shows a man walk in to check his numbers, says he bought the ticket when he was in arizona.
jumps up and down, shows the cashier and a couple customers
no word on whether it was legit, as it still appears to be unclaimed
whoever has the ticket now prob cant turn it in cause its covered in blood, if you know what i'm saying
