gilboa

Imagine for a second if the person who won tonight's $900 million dollar Mega Millions jackpot was from a place the size of let's say Gilboa, New York. The thought only popped into my head because with a population of roughly 1,200 people, it's comparable in size to Lonaconing, Maryland where the $730 million dollar Powerball jackpot winner on Wednesday was from.

When you hear headlines like "World's Oldest" or "World's Biggest," 98% of the time it is now where near the Capital Region, until now.
