LANSING, November 15, 2007 – Two Way Play was an “instant” success for Gasper Calandrino of Macomb! He scratched his way to the top $25,000 prize!

The regular instant Lottery player didn’t believe he really had a winning ticket! After Calandrino realized that he was holding on to a huge ticket, he hid it in a lock box before cashing it in at the Lottery’s Sterling Heights office.

The lucky winner plans on cleaning up his credit with his win.

The winning ticket was purchased at In & Out Market, 200 North Ave., in Mt. Clemens.

Two Way Play 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 2007, the contribution was $748.9 million. Since its inception in 1972, the Lottery has contributed more than $14.3 billion to education in Michigan.
