LANSING, October 10, 2007 – Patrick Wearn scratched a lucky $10,000,000 Game Book instant ticket and revealed that it was a $10,000 winner!

The Detroit man didn’t believe that he won and had to have a second pair of eyes look at his ticket to make sure that he was right.  The lucky 27-year-old plans to catch up on bills and take a vacation with his prize money.  In his free time, he enjoys sports, motorcycles, Irish culture and traveling.

The lucky winning ticket was purchased at McCarty Wine & Cheese, 4033 McCarty Rd., in Saginaw.

$10,000,000 Game Book is just one of many Michigan Lottery Instant tickets available at nearly 11,000 Lottery retailers statewide.

All proceeds from the Lottery are contributed to the state School Aid Fund which supports kindergarten through 12th grade public education in Michigan.  In fiscal year 2006, the contribution was $688 million.
