I always love reading stories about people who have won big money playing the Michigan Lottery.

The one thing that most of the winners seem to have in common which makes no sense to me is how calm they claim they were when they won a massive amount of money.

If I was to win $100 I would freak out and if I was to win $100,000 or more I would probably pass out from shock.

A man who recently won a large amount of money celebrated how I think everyone should.

The 64-year-old Michigan man from Lenawee County recently stopped by Michigan Lottery headquarters in Lansing and shared what happened when he found out he won.

“I stopped to get a coffee early one morning on the way to visit my son, so I grabbed a Fast Cash ticket while I was at the store. I looked the ticket over as soon as the clerk handed it to me and started yelling when I saw I’d won the jackpot. I showed the clerk, and she started yelling and jumping up and down with me!”

This lucky man isn't the only person to win big playing the Michigan Lottery.

A man visiting Michigan from Maryland recently won $1,000,000 playing a Lucky Numbers instant win ticket.

A Bay County woman who had been playing Lotto 47 for 20 years with the same numbers hit it big and won $1.1 million.

And an Oakland County woman playing Fantasy 5 online accidentally selected a wrong number that resulted in her winning $250,000.
