Is it just me or does it seem like the major lottery winners are usually in New Jersey or California? Maybe I am cranky because I am not $630 million dollars richer today but I am tired of Idaho being left off of the major winners list.

The biggest winner in Idaho history was a big one, Idahoan Brad Duke won $220.3 Million. While we are thrilled for Brad, who according to lotterypost.com, "started a family foundation for children and paid a helicopter to fly him and a buddy to the top of a Canadian glacier so they could mountain bike to the bottom."

When did Brad win his big big pot of gold? His winning ticket was from 2005, so its been a bit since Idaho had a major major winner. Brad still holds that 'Biggest Idaho Lottery Winner" title but I think it's time we get another big jackpot in the gem state.

Obviously not this round since last nights massive powerball went to California and Wisconsin. I believe in us Idaho. Lets get the next one. ;)

In the mean time check out stories of other big Idaho winners, although not nearly as big as $220 million dollar Brad.
