Found $20 buys lottery winner worth $1M
It was his first time playing the lottery in 10 years, he said.
“I told my friend who I was with that I didn’t know if it was real but, ‘I think I just won a million dollars,’ ” Tang said, according to a release from the state lottery.
Tang said he’ll put the money in savings.
Earlier this year, lottery officials were looking for another lucky customer who’d purchased a $1 million Powerball ticket and hadn’t claimed the winnings. Winners have 180 days to claim a prize and despite a media blitz by the state lottery to help identify the man, no winner ever came forward.
