An Arkansas man stole 1500 lottery
tickets from a Shell gas station

The best way to win the lottery is to pick one good number and keep playing it for about 10 years.

Now I know, there are folks who refuse to wait that long to get some money.

Folks like this fella name Kenneth Mayweather who the law says broke into a Shell gas station and stole 1500 lottery tickets.

What I get out of all of this is that Mayweather was going to sell the lottery tickets for something like $1 to $2 a pop.

That way, he’ll make at least the $1500 to $3000 he needs to do whatever it is he is trying to do.

Unfortunately for him, his doing has put him in the doo. I’m quite sure ol’ “Kenny Lotto,” as I will refer to him as from henceforth, will say he didn’t break into anything and that all of this is “fake news.”

But those cameras don’t lie and his face on those cameras says it’s him. And then that’s another thing. What is he doing breaking into a Shell gas station?

I haven’t heard about or seen a Shell gas station in a while now. I thought they had been put out of business. I see those fancy gas stations. The ones attach to a Tim Hortons and that have the TV screens with the weather and sports updates.

The fancy gas stations smell better than those Shell gas stations. The last time I went to a Shell gas station was about 5-years-ago. That muddy wet rancid smell turned me around so quick and fast to the point that I didn’t even get one foot in the door.

I tried giving them a chance because I could see from the little bit of traffic they were getting that they weren’t doing so hot.

But after getting a whiff of that funk, I smelled right away why so many folks just stay away.

Now, I’m not saying it’s this way at all of the Shell gas stations. But, my experience is if it’s funky in one then it’s most likely funky in them all.

As for Kenny Lotto, he faces a handful of charges which include breaking and entering and stealing.

He looks like the type who will take a plea deal that will probably shave about 1 to 2 years off of that 10-year prison sentence he will get if he goes to trial.
