A Maryland man wins the lottery twice in a 24-hour period. On March 27th, an unnamed 79-year-old man from Easton, Maryland, won $400 on Maryland Lottery’s Pick 5 game. The next day he went back to the same store and bought another Pick 5 ticket, and this time he won the top prize of $50-thousand.
The lucky man says he puts a lot of thought into choosing his lotto numbers and plays the same numbers even if he doesn’t win. The day he bought his big winner, he says he had a feeling that he was going to win the $50-thousand prize.
His wife was shocked when she found out about their good fortune. Just a few days prior, the couple were discussing what bills they’d pay if they won the $50-grand. They plan to pay down some bills with the money and surprise their children by sharing some of it with them.
