Michigan Man Double-Checks Fine Print on Lottery Ticket, Wins $4 Million

A Kent County man had to read the fine print on his Millionaire’s Club ticket to ensure it wasn’t a prank lottery ticket after winning a $4 million prize.

The lucky player, who chose to remain anonymous, bought the winning ticket at the Citgo gas station, located at 3895 Plainfield Avenue Northeast in Grand Rapids.

“I won $50 on an instant game, and wanted to reinvest my winnings,” said the 54-year-old player.

“The store was sold out of the $50 instant games, so I decided on a $30 ticket instead.

“When I scratched the ticket and saw I’d won $4 million, the first thing I did was call my brother.

He told me to make sure it wasn’t one of those prank lottery tickets, so I flipped it over and read through the fine print on the back.

Once I confirmed it indeed was not a prank, I called the Lottery to have them confirm the prize as well.”
