When I first the saw the headline from the UPI site, I was thinking that Robert Schwartz picked up a lottery ticket from the street. What happened what that Robert who plays the lottery a lot, used a free lottery ticket since one of the red numbers or one of the white numbers matched. Which gives him a free play with the Kansas Lottery 2 by 2 game. The catch is that the winning numbers were on the Quick Pick system. Robert went to the Zip Store 3 in Great Bend store. When Robert saw that he won the grand prize of $22,000 dollars, he almost had a heart attack due to the joy of winning. Robert will use the grand prize money to buy new golf clubs for himself and his wife. The odds of winning a grand prize in the lottery via the Quick Pick system is as best a longshot.

That is true since the odds of hitting all numbers on the Quick Pick system is very rare.

I know what you mean since golf equipment has a very steep price tag.

He is lucky. But I bet he can buy more than that.

What fun for him! You have an error in your title. Someone I know wins tickets, but never wins money. Hope he hits it big one day and shares with me!

Lucky man. I am going to start purchasing an instant ticket at least once or twice a month. Who knows if my Guardian Angels stand near I might just be set for life.
