A $10 lottery ticket turned into a life-changing $1 million win for a Michigan family lottery club called the Lucky Leprechauns.
The four-member group had only recently started playing together when luck struck big. One family member bought a Michigan Lottery Cash Surge scratch-off ticket, then handed it over to another member to scratch.
“When she said we won $1 million, I honestly thought she was kidding,” the club’s representative shared. “It felt unreal and completely shocking!”
The winning ticket was purchased at a Busch’s store in Tecumseh on West Chicago Boulevard.
