LANSING, Mich. \u2013 A wrong click when purchasing a Fantasy 5 ticket online turned out to be the right click after it led to a $251,738 jackpot win for an Oakland County woman!<\/p>\n
The 57-year-old player, who chose to remain anonymous, matched the Fantasy 5 numbers in the March 13 drawing to win the big prize: 08-10-11-22-39. She bought her winning ticket online at MichiganLottery.com.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was buying a Fantasy 5 ticket online, and when selecting my numbers, I mistakenly clicked 39 instead of 47, but I decided to keep it because my mother always told me: \u2018There are no accidents!\u2019\u201d said the player. \u201cLater that night, I saw an email from the Lottery, but it wasn\u2019t the usual email I get when I win a few dollars.<\/p>\n
\u201cAfter I logged in to my account and saw how much I\u2019d won, I paced my house for several hours trying to wrap my head around it. I like playing the Lottery for fun and entertainment, but I never expected to win big, so my immediate reaction was shock and denial.\u201d<\/p>\n
The lucky player recently visited Lottery headquarters to claim her jackpot. She plans to save her winnings.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t have anything big planned with my winnings as of now. I\u2019ve been blessed with a good life, so I\u2019m going to put the money in a savings account and just keep on living,\u201d the player said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"LANSING, Mich. \u2013 A wrong click when purchasing a Fantasy 5 ticket online turned out to be the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":247178,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[143,145,144],"class_list":["post-247177","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-oakland","tag-oakland","tag-oakland-headlines","tag-oakland-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/247177","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=247177"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/247177\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/247178"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=247177"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=247177"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=247177"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
