Kansas man wins two big lottery prizes in one month
Published in Weird News
(UPI) A Kansas man is celebrating a lucky month after visiting state lottery headquarters twice to collect large jackpots.
Bill Wesley of Liberal won $25,000 in the Jan. 3 Holiday Millionaire Raffle and he was back at Kansas Lottery headquarters in Topeka on Thursday to collect a $10,000 prize from a $2 10X The Cash scratch-off ticket.
"I've never been very lucky before, so this is pretty unexpected," Wesley said. Hopefully I can keep this streak going! We don't mind the drive at all when it's to claim a big prize.
He said he was at Love's County store when he saw another customer buy a 10X The Cash ticket and decided to follow suit.
"We just bought a 2006 Corvette with the prize money from the Holiday Millionaire Raffle, so now I'm not sure what to buy with the winnings," Wesley said. I may use it as a down payment on a new pickup or a motorcycle. We haven't decided yet.
