Second time’s the charm for one lucky Alpena man. After purchasing two scratch-off tickets, he decided to give Emerald 10’s a try since the one he wanted was sold out.
Well, fortunately for him, that simple decision turned into a fortune. After scratching off the winning number, he actually started scratching off the second ticket because he thought it was only $1,000. His eye eventually caught the rest of the zeros, and then he was in shock.
