A Lapeer County man will be living debt-free after winning $300,000 in the 20X Wild Time instant game.
The 58-year-old gamer, who wished to remain anonymous, purchased his winning ticket at the Village Station in Columbiaville.
He stated that he always plays 20X Wild Time since it offers a second chance to win on non-winning tickets.
“I purchased several of these tickets and scratched them late at night. When I saw I had won $300,000, I believed my eyes were playing tricks on me, so I gave it to my wife and asked her to scan it on the lottery app,” he explained.
What they witnessed impacted their life.
“When $300,000 appeared on the screen, I jumped up and began shouting!” “Needless to say, I didn’t get much sleep that night,” the athlete admitted. “Winning is life-changing and will allow us to live debt-free.”
The player recently went to Michigan Lottery headquarters to receive his winnings. He stated that he intends to take a trip and pay off his obligations.
20X Wild Time debuted in April 2024. Each ticket costs $5 and provides participants with a chance to win anywhere from $5 to $300,000.
