Man won life changing scratch lottery prize worth $1 million

A man added fortune to his morning cup of coffee on a lucky morning in Chula Vista.

According to the California Lottery, Nabi Hasani said “he couldn’t believe his eyes” after staring down at a $10 “The Perfect Gift” Scratchers ticket worth a whopping $1 million.

Hasani purchased the ticket at an Arco ampm minimart located at 407 East Street in Chula Vista while making a stop for a cup of Joe.

“It was just a random pick. I asked the cashier if it was true that I won,” Hasani told the California Lottery.

“I still went home and showed my children and asked them to confirm it, too.”

Hasani was tasked with uncovering a box showing a bell and the $1,000,000 figure. He was given 20 chances and says his luck turned when he had only three boxes left to scratch off. Box 17 delivered, revealing his big bucks victory.
