Mickey D's lady isn't Mega lotto winner — these three are

Attention Maryland residents: You can stop scouring your local McDonald's for that "missing" Mega Millions ticket. Three teachers with the Maryland public school system have come forward with the winning numbers and -- in a plot twist that surprises no one -- Mirlande Wilson isn't one of them. The legit winners will take home a lump sum of $34.997 million each and wish to remain anonymous.

The "Three Amigos" were introduced at a Tuesday morning press conference hiding behind an oversized cardboard check, revealing nothing but matching sets of black gloves. "I'm kinda happy that it's 3 teachers that won," one D.C.-area DJ tweeted. "Teachers never get paid their worth for all they do."
