Mega Millions Winner to Ford: DROP DEAD

David Sneath worked in a Ford Motor Company parts warehouse fro 34 years, but didn't take much time leaving after winning $136 million in the lottery.

"I yelled to the boss, 'I'm out of here,"' the Livonia man said Thursday after coming to state Lottery Bureau headquarters in downtown Lansing to pick up his first $1 million check.

And then there's this:

Despite his longtime association with Ford, he said he won't be using any of the money to buy one of his former employer's vehicles.

"I worked for Ford Motor Company," he said. "I won't be buying a Ford product."

Quality is job one.

UPDATE: Major oops on the part of the AP, here.
