LANSING, March 27, 2003 – A Warren man recently had a wildly lucky day upon scratching off a Michigan Lottery "Casino Wild" instant ticket to reveal a $100,000 top prize!

The lucky winner, who requested anonymity, purchased the winning ticket at 7-Eleven 13432, 15270 E. 14 Mile Road, in Fraser.

"I scratched off the ticket while still in the store," said the 32-year-old winner.  "I was so shocked to win that I just kept staring at the ticket in disbelief!"

The avid outdoorsman said he kept the winning ticket in a "safe place" prior to turning it in at Lottery headquarters in Lansing.  He added that he plans to share part of his winnings with his family and use the remainder to pay bills.

"Casino Wild" is one of many Michigan Lottery instant tickets available at more than 9,000 Michigan Lottery retailers statewide.
