A family who had been playing their deceased father’s lucky lotto numbers won a lotto jackpot. The unnamed family from Australia said that they had been playing their father’s lucky numbers every week since he passed away 2 years ago. “We kept playing them to honor him, he’d been playing them for years and years before that too so I’m quite excited we’ve finally had a win!” a family member said. The family won close to $300K.
WASHINGTON - OCTOBER 14: The words "In God We Trust" are seen on U.S. currency October 14, 2004 in Washington, DC. Although the U.S. constitution prohibits an official state religion, references to God appear on American money, the U.S. Congress starts its daily session with a prayer, and the same U.S. Supreme Court that has consistently struck down organized prayer in public schools as unconstitutional opens its public sessions by asking for the blessings of God. The Supreme Court will soon use cases from Kentucky and Texas to consider the constitutionality of Ten Commandments displays on government property, addressing a church-state issue that has ignited controversy around the country.
