“The second one I scratched was the $1 million winner.” “I had been pretty lucky playing Club Keno and when I cashed my ticket, I decided to buy a few Cashwords,” he told lottery officials. The 33-year-old dad said he bought his winning lottery ticket while at a Wesco gas station in Spring Lake, about 30 miles northwest of Grand Rapids. “I was celebrating so loud I woke my one-year-old daughter up from her nap!” “I called everyone I could think of to share the good news, but no one was answering their phones,” he said in the release. The first thing he wanted to do was tell loved ones about his big win. “And when it said I had won $1 million, I was shocked,” he told lottery officials.

Needing official verification, Meloche pulled up the lottery app on his phone and scanned his $20 Cashword Times 20 instant game ticket.

It was no small prize - and he just wasn’t sure he could believe his eyes, according to a March 22 news release from the Michigan Lottery. After Adam Meloche scratched his Michigan lottery ticket, he said he “must have looked it over 100 times.”
