Sandy victims among the 'Oceans 16' Powerball lottery winners
Several of them suffered property losses in Superstorm Sandy. One is the daughter of a man who helped write New Jersey's lottery law.
All are feeling extremely lucky.
Sixteen New Jersey co-workers who jointly held one of three tickets that won last week's $448 million Powerball jackpot came forward publicly Tuesday.

Good. Now you can stop begging for more FEMA money.
Watch New Jersey "really" move forward now!
How nice! Good for them.
Congrates to them 🙂
