Michael S. from the US state of Michigan received the wrong ticket and became a lucky lottery player.
Michael S. lives in the neighboring state of Illinois and comes to Michigan once a month to eat at his favorite restaurant. This was also the case on September 17.
Along the way, he filled up at the GoLo gas station in New Buffalo and at checkout he wanted to get ten “Lucky for Life” tickets for the daily drawing for the equivalent of $18.
According to a press release, the employee questioned himself. “Instead of giving me ten tickets for the next ten draws, he just printed me a ticket with ten rows of numbers for a single draw,” says Michael.
The man initially offered to give him new banknotes, but S. decided not to. To his incredible luck. After the draw, he checked his ticket and discovered that the ninth row of numbers contained the winning numbers.
The 60-year-old said: “It was an indescribable feeling to discover that I would now receive $25,000 a year for the rest of my life. For age reasons, the retiree decided to make a one-time payment of $390,000.
