A guy from St. Joseph County visited the Michigan Lottery headquarters on Monday to claim his half-million dollar reward, as everyone else waited to learn who would win the $4.37 million prize.
A 77-year-old man won $500,000 in the instant game Winter Ice offered by the Michigan Lottery. The Michigan Lottery reports that the fortunate player purchased his winning ticket at Jit Food and Gas in Constantine.
The guy and his kid reportedly purchased two $5 scratch-off tickets at a petrol station, according to the Lottery. When one of the tickets was scratched to reveal a $10 prize, the player who wanted to remain anonymous went back to the store and purchased two more tickets.
“My son likes the Wild Time game, so I got him one of those, and I got myself a new $500,000 Winter Ice ticket after the clerk said people had been doing pretty well on it,” the winner stated to the Lottery. “I asked my son, ‘What would you say if I told you I won $500,000?’ after we scratched out the tickets. ‘That you’re full of it,’ he answered. I gave him the ticket at that point, and we both began yelling.”
He declared to the lottery that he would use the winnings to purchase a new house.
