Would you take a dive for $20?
PALMETTO, Fla.: How far would you go for 20 bucks? Mark Giorgio jumped off a 50-foot bridge to retrieve a wayward 20. Giorgio was counting his money while walking across a bridge over the Manatee River in Florida. A 20-dollar bill blew out of his hand and over the rail. He followed.
Giorgio plunged into the water 50-feet below, then had to swim 100 yards, but he did get his soggy 20. He was fished from the water by a passing Florida fish-and-game officer.
Giorgio tells the Sarasota Herald-Tribune “hell, yeah” it was worth it. He says 20 bucks is a lot of money when you’re broke.
Long distance lottery winner
Norway: Gunvor Pedersen is getting good news from her native Norway, she’s a millionaire. Pedersen won one and a-quarter million dollars in Norway’s national lottery. But Norwegian officials had no idea where to find her. Pederson moved to the U-S in 1964 and lives on New York’s Long Island. But she’s returned to Norway every summer for a visit, buying a single lottery ticket each trip.
After the story of the missing winner was carried by Norwegian media, friends suspected it could be Pedersen. And it was. Despite her recent good luck, Pedersen isn’t interested in playing the New York lotto. She says she’ll stick with her one Norwegian lottery ticket a year.
