What started as a small celebration quickly turned into a life-changing moment for a Michigan lottery club. The group thought they had won just $50 — but their ticket was actually worth a jaw-dropping $4.14 million Fast Cash jackpot.
One of the club members said they decided to buy several tickets because the jackpot had grown so high that night.
“I checked the ticket and figured it was a small win,” the player shared. “But I scanned it just to be sure. When I saw the message telling me to file a claim, I used the Michigan Lottery app. The screen showed $4.14 million, and I started shaking. I couldn’t believe it. This kind of win changes everything.”
