Toledoan Wins West African Lottery



East Toledo – We have all received the emails telling us that a prince or sheik in a far off land has billions of dollars to give away and “you” were selected in a random drawing to receive billions of dollars. If these emails make it past the spam filters we usually delete them as soon as they come up, but not Roy Jingeleski.

Mr. Jingeleski a laid off Jeep and worker and part time roofer was shocked last Wednesday morning when he checked his mailbox and found a check for $300,000,000

“I simply mailed the $3,000 to pay the taxes on the winnings. It seemed like a fair trade and you know how the tax man gets everybody even all the way up in Western Africa”.

Mr. Jingeleski has had very little luck winning anything his whole life

“The last time I won anything was in 5th grade at the St. Thomas Festival when I tossed the ping pong ball into the gold fish bowl, but when they gave me the fish it was already dead, I just have no luck”

Mr. Jingeleski took the check for $ 300,000,000 to AJ’s Carry Out on E. Broadway to cash in his winnings, unfortunately he was denied.

“Dat man is ca razy if he think we gonna cash dat check, I aint never seen that many zeros in my life man, we don’t keep dat kind of cash on hand” said Jeremy Zepson, a clerk at Aj’s

Next Mr. Jingeleski took the check to a local Cash ‘n Go and sadly they could not cash it either. His final stop was 5/3 Bank in downtown Toledo, where he was told he would have to wait for the check t o clear… 3 days.

Mr. Jingeleski used those three days to start compiling a list of his first major purchases.

“First I’m getting new T-Tops for my ’89 Camaro then I’m going to Rent a Center and just go crazy. I have wanted to throw a party for a while now and with this money I can have the nicest party E. Toledo has ever seen, I’m going get kegs of only the best beer, Keystone Light, Natty, Bud Ice, and I think I still have a keg of Red Dog in the basement. I’m going to rent the biggest TV Rent a Center has so the whole neighborhood can watch the race, and for those non drinkers I’m going to buy every flavor Faygo makes. This is going to be awesome.”

Mr. Jingeleski’s party will take place this Saturday at 43821 Nevada St. Please NO GORDON FANS!!!!
