N.J. restaurant staff celebrates ‘winning’ Powerball with wrong ticket

 

Like plenty of other American co-workers, the staff at an Italian restaurant in northern New Jersey went in on tickets for last weekend’s $900 million Powerball drawing. And for about 20 minutes on Saturday night, they say they thought they had won.

 

“We were laughing. We were crying,” Charlie Poveromo, a bartender at Grissini Ristorante in Englewood Cliffs, told CNN on Wednesday. “It was a beautiful thing.”

What an emotional roller-coaster....I can't imagine what it was like when they realized they hadn't won.
