Commerce Township resident James Allen purchased a Power Ball lottery ticket at Hoops Food, Sports and Spirits in Auburn Hills on December 28 2022. James used the number based on the birthdates of his children which resulted in getting four white balls and the red power ball which he thought that he won $50,000 dollars. James found out that he is played the Powerplay add-on game which increased his total of $200,000 dollars when the drawing came out on $200,000 dollars before taxes. James will be his lottery winnings to pay off his bills. Using the birthdates of a relative is a strange way of winning a huge lottery prize. Link is upi.com/4261705507415 via @upi

Yep, this makes me want to get a lottery ticket and used the combination of my birthdate with my husband's. Perhaps the heavens will bless me,

I don't know why many people in our country think their kids have better luck.
