DDG: Man Wins $10Million On Scratch-Off After Letting Clerk Pick Ticket

When he discovered the store in Visalia, California, where he usually shops was closed, Brent Young went to another store to buy a lottery game. Unsure which scratch-off ticket to choose, he asked the clerk to pick one for him. The clerk selected a $30 California 200X game.

Young scratched off his ticket and soon learned he’d won the game’s top prize of $10-million. “When I saw all those zeros, I was like ‘no way, this doesn’t happen to people like me,’” Young says. “It’s crazy. Out of all those options, the clerk could have picked a different game. But he didn’t. He grabbed a winner.”

The lucky winner decided to take his prize as a cash lump sum of $5.8-million, while the owner of the store will get a $50-thousand prize for selling the winning ticket. Young credits his win to a lucky turn of fate. “My usual stop was closed,” he says, “If it had been open, none of this probably would have happened.”
