A man from Corbin, Kentucky, ran into some bad luck after his car became critically low on gas but his misfortune was short-lived, thanks to a winning purchase at a gas station.
Michael Schlemmer won a $1,000,000 Luck Kentucky Lottery scratch-off game from a ticket he bought May 18 during his fuel stop, he told the Kentucky Lottery. “I ran out of gas, and I coasted in there,” Schlemmer said. “I had $40 bucks on me and bought $20 worth of gas, and bought a ticket.” He scratched the $20 ticket, revealing the automatic symbol to win the game’s $1 million top prize, according to the Kentucky Lottery.
“I showed the girls that sold it to me, and they about had a fit,” Schlemmer said. “The owners of the store were there and they both started grinning.” The Convenient Food Mart will receive $8,620 for selling the winning ticket, according to the Kentucky Lottery. Schlemmer opted to take the game’s lump sum of $862,000 rather than receiving $50,000 per year over two decades. He received a check for $616,330 after taxes.
