美国16亿美元破纪录大奖头奖开出

在佛罗里达州，头奖彩票是在墨尔本比奇的Publix杂货店售出的。一名雇员告诉《今日佛罗里达》，Publix杂货店已经受到了各路电话的狂轰滥炸。

John Koontz, a front service worker at the store, had just stepped out of his car to show up for work when someone he knew asked him the big question: Was it true?

该店的前台服务人员约翰•孔茨说，他前脚才下车准备进店工作，后脚就有熟人向他求证这个惊人的消息：是真的吗？

“They’re all excited. One of the locals just asked me was it true that the winning ticket was sold here,” Koontz said, lining up one of the store scooters in the cart area. “Can you imagine this is happening here at our little store?”

“大家都特别兴奋。有个本地人直接问我，头奖彩票是不是在这里卖出去的？”孔茨一边说一边将购物车区域的推车排列整齐。“你能想象这种大奖居然出自我们这种小店吗？”

Dave Demi didn't win the Powerball but said he's happy about the possibility someone from Melbourne Beach may have.

大卫•德米没有中奖，但他表示，墨尔本比奇有人可能会获得这笔大奖也让他感到很开心。

"I'd say good for you," Demi said, braving the early morning chill to walk into the Driftwood Plaza Publix to check his ticket for other possible winnings. "I bought two tickets here and two at a convenience store. I did the one Powerball number," he said chuckling.
