Winner of the 2012 One Drop and its $18 million grand prize, a now penny-less and hungry Antonio Esfandiari had to resort to begging for money at the Las Vegas Airport in order to buy lunch.

There was a time when homeless people ran amuck in airports prior to 9-11.  No reports of Esfandiari rummaging through the garbage at least

We are assuming he got to his destination all right as this incident occurred on Wednesday (two days ago).

But there is only one word we can say in response to this story:

DOH!!!!!
