Man upholds 28-year promise
A western Wisconsin man will share his millions in lottery winnings with a longtime friend because of a promise they made to each other 28 years ago.
Friends Tom Cook and Joseph Feeney shook hands in 1992 and promised that if either one of them ever won the Powerball jackpot
they would split the money.
汤姆·库克和约瑟夫·菲尼这对好朋友在1992年彼此约定，如果任何一人中了强力球头奖，都会将奖金与对方平分。
That promise came to fruition last month when Cook bought the winning ticket for a $22 million jackpot at Synergy Coop in Menomonie
Wis.
When Cook called to give his friend the good news
Feeney couldn't quite believe it.
The men chose the cash option of about $16.7 million
leaving each with nearly $5.7 million after taxes are paid. The odds of winning the Powerball jackpot are 1 in about 292 million.
