LANSING, November 2, 2007 – It must have been black magic!  John and Sue Wilson from Hell claimed a $115,001 prize from the October 31 Fantasy 5 drawing!

The Wilsons have been playing the same numbers since they wed 17 years ago and they were surprised when they saw “their” numbers on the Lottery’s Web site.

The two plan to use the prize money to pay bills and buy a Nintendo Wii for their son.

The winning own pick ticket was purchased at Mugg & Bopps #14, 850 E. Main St., in Pinckney.

Fantasy 5 drawings are conducted seven days a week.  Jackpots start at $100,000 and grow by approximately $5,000 daily.

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.
