01/29/08 Huge Mega Millions lotto prize claimed in Michigan


LANSING, January 29, 2008 - W. Damm, a self-proclaimed "occasional" Mega Millions player, struck it rich when he matched five numbers, without the Mega ball and won a $250,000 prize!
The Grosse Pointe Woods man also matched three white ball numbers, without the gold Mega ball to bring his grand prize total to $250,007!




Damm learned of his good fortune from his newspaper and then immediately checked the Lottery's Web site for confirmation. He explained the experience as "weird" because he never thought he would actually see his numbers


The lucky winner told Lottery officials that the easy pick ticket prize money will be put in savings, and he enjoys photography and traveling in his free time.
The winning ticket was purchased at Michigan Fuels #731613, 20700 Mack Ave., in Grosse Pointe Woods.
