Gas Station Employee's Mistake Leads to Illinois Man Winning Big in Michigan Lottery
An Illinois man, Michael Sopejstal, won $390,000 in the Lucky For Life lottery after a gas station employee mistakenly printed a ticket with 10 lines for one draw instead of 10 draws. Sopejstal decided to receive his winnings as a one-time lump sum payment and plans to use the money for travel and savings. The Lucky For Life lottery offers a top prize of $1,000 a day for life, requiring players to match an extra Lucky Ball in addition to the first five numbers.
