Mega Millions Winner Lahti Screamed

When Holly Lahti found out she won $190 million in the Mega Millions Lottery, she kept her cool. For a moment or two. At first, “she was very quiet about it,” said Leasa Moore, night manager at Ady’s Convenience Store & Car Wash on Seltice Way in Post Falls, where the winning ticket was sold. When Lahti, of Rathdrum, went to the store to check her numbers last week, the employees took her in the back to tell her she won. She was calm at first, but in the backroom Lahti could no longer contain her excitement. She asked if anyone was in the store. When she was told there wasn’t, Moore said she asked, “Can I scream?” And scream, she did/Chelsea Bannach, SR. More here . (AP file photo: Idaho Lottery Director Jeff Anderson)

Question: Would you simply scream if you’d just been told that you’d won the $190 Mega Millions lottery?
