NC Man Accidentally Wins Lottery …TWICE
This is a mistake that turned out really good.
Scotty Thomas, of Fayetteville, North Carolina, accidentally purchased two identical lottery tickets for the same lottery drawing. Both tickets were winners. Each of Scotty’s winning tickets were good for $25,000-a-year for life.
He says, “I was just lying in bed watching a basketball game on TV, and I couldn’t remember if I filled it out or not. I went ahead and filled it out again, and the next morning my son asked why there were two different amounts listed. I realized, ‘I think I filled it out twice.’ When I realized I won, I had to lie down on the floor because I really just couldn’t believe it. It’s just a blessing.” Scotty plans to use his winnings to invest in his business and pay off bills.
