A DuPage County man who goes by the nickname “Lucky” turned a work break into a life-changing moment, claiming a $1 million top prize after buying a $50 Millionaire Club scratch-off at a Mobil station in Lombard. He had just scratched a losing ticket, tried again, and hit the jackpot. Now he says he plans to invest in his family, buy a home, upgrade his wardrobe, and donate a portion of the windfall to a local hospital.
How the Ticket Was Bought
According to FOX 32 Chicago, the winning Millionaire Club ticket was purchased at the Mobil at 435 W. Roosevelt Road in Lombard. The winner, who chose to stay anonymous and identified himself only as “Lucky,” said he first bought a losing ticket, then decided to take another shot during a break at work and scratched the second ticket on the spot.
