The total prize was $240,338.
Two jackpots worth $240,338 were won by a 67-year-old resident of Oakland County (Michigan, USA) after he accidentally bought two identical lottery tickets.
UPI writes about it.
“Every week I buy a multi-circulation ticket with the same set of numbers that I have entered for four years in a row,” the player said.
Both of the man's tickets, numbered 04-10-12-20-30, won a $120,169 jackpot.
“After the draw, I opened my lottery account to check the numbers and couldn't believe it when I saw the prize of $240,338,” the man said.
The winner will spend part of the prize money on his son's education, and save the rest.
