LANSING, April 4, 2003 – Everyone fantasizes
that someday they will become instantly wealthy. For Dorothy Blake of Redford
that scenario is no longer a fantasy! She recently scratched off a Michigan
Lottery "Magic Money" instant ticket to reveal a $10,000 top
prize!
Blake purchased the winning ticket at Knight
Enterprises #6, 25810 Schoolcraft, in Redford.
"I scratched off the ticket while still in
the store," said Blake. "I began screaming, ‘I won! I won!’ and my
brother thought I was joking. I showed him the ticket and we both started
screaming with excitement!"
Blake, 36, said she kept the winning ticket in
her wallet at all times to ensure its safety prior to turning it in at the
Lottery’s regional office in Dearborn Heights.
The lucky lady said she plans to use part of her
winnings to pay bills and share the rest with her children.
"Magic Money" is one of many instant
tickets available at more than 9,000 Michigan Lottery retailers statewide.
