Michigan Lottery Lucky for Life: A Woman's Unbelievable Win

Patricia Royer, a 65-year-old from Escanaba, Michigan, recently experienced the thrill of winning the Michigan Lottery Lucky for Life game. But her reaction was far from excitement - she thought someone had hacked her account!

On March 12th, Royer checked her tickets online and was stunned to see that she had won the second-tier prize in Lucky for Life. Her ticket matched all five white ball numbers (3, 13, 24, 36, and 44), just missing the Lucky Ball 10 to win the top prize of $7,000 a week for life.

At first, Royer thought it was a mistake or that her account had been compromised. She logged out and logged back in to make sure everything was correct. But when she checked again, the result remained the same - she had won $25,000 a year for life!

After receiving confirmation from the lottery officials that her win was legitimate, Royer visited the Michigan Lottery headquarters in Lansing to claim her prize. She opted to take the one-time lump sum of $390,000 instead of the annual payments.

Royer has been playing Lucky for Life since a year ago with her husband and had previously won $200 in another drawing. She used those winnings to buy more tickets, which ultimately paid off.

In an interview with the Michigan Lottery, Royer said she couldn't believe her luck. 'I still can't fathom winning! It is unbelievable,' she exclaimed.

Royer's win serves as a reminder that playing the lottery can be life-changing, and sometimes it requires keeping a level head to recognize when your numbers come up. We congratulate Patricia Royer on her incredible Lucky for Life win and wish her all the best in her future endeavors.
