Winning on two identical tickets

Scotty Thomas, of North Carolina, said he was watching a basketball game on TV when he realised he hadn’t filled out his Lucky for Life tickets.

The dump truck driver, 49, from Fayetteville, told the North Carolina Education Lottery:

“I went ahead and filled it out again, and my son asked why there were two different amounts listed the next morning.” ‘I think I filled it out twice,’ I realised.

Following the draw on November 27, 2021, Thomas won $25,000 per year for the rest of his life on both tickets.

He chose to receive a lump sum of $780,000 rather than yearly payments, and he intends to invest in his business, pay off debts, and treat his family.

After taxes, the dump truck driver took home around $550,000.
