PATRICIA FRIERSON, LOTTERY WINNER: I'm right here and I told them I said check my numbers. Make sure I'm not the one because I couldn't believe I had it because all the other tickets I had. Ah, which reminds me I think it's sitting on my seat in the car and the window is down. I hope nobody will take them.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
KELLI ARENA, CNN ANCHOR: Good thing she made it out to her car. You are not going to believe how much money this woman won from the California Super Lotto. And then John Zarrella with the whales -- John (unintelligible).
JOHN ZARRELLA, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Kelli, the only whale left behind me in a lagoon tonight is Shamu and the celebrating volunteers and scientists involved in the successful release today of five pilot whales that story coming up.
(COMMERCIAL BREAK)
ARENA: A suburban Los Angeles woman who bought a $1 lottery ticket at a liquor store is now thinking about what to do with $91 million. Patricia Frierson won last night's California lottery super lotto plus game jackpot.

FRIERSON: Oh, I can't believe it.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Are you going to keep working?
FRIERSON: That I don't know. I really don't know because that's a hard decision because I was going to retire in six more years. I have six more years to go ad I said I was going to retire in six more years but now that I'm a millionaire I really don't need to work do I?
You know when I saw the numbers I said those look like my numbers and I said well I know I got at least $15 if nothing else because I know I got those numbers.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: You got $91 million.
FRIERSON: I swear when I saw that number I kept looking at it and I kept looking at it. I said, I'm right here and I told him I said check my numbers. Make sure I'm not the one because I couldn't believe I had it because all the other tickets they had. Oh, which reminds me my ticket is sitting on my seat in the car and the window is down. I hope nobody will take them.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
ARENA: We hope so too. By the way, Patricia Frierson says she supports Arnold Schwarzenegger for governor but if he wins he better watch out because she is rich enough to hire petitioners and sponsor her own recall.
