For Air National Guard Reservist Taylor Smith, Mother’s Day weekend was fairly routine. After a few presents, shopping with his wife Alicia, and visiting family, Taylor found himself with $20 left over.
“I told my wife, I’m gonna play the lottery,” he said. Alicia was not too happy with him over the decision, but Taylor was determined and purchased four, $5 Bucks n’ Trucks Scratch tickets from the Jacksons ExtraMile at Deer Flat and Linder Roads in Kuna. The couple split the tickets to scratch.
After just a few minutes of playing their tickets, Alicia began to exclaim, “I think we won a truck! I think we won a truck!”
Taylor and Alicia, yes, you won a truck!
The Smith’s became the first winners on the Idaho Lottery’s game Bucks n’ Trucks. The couple worked with Corwin Ford in Nampa to select an Oxford White Ford F-150 Tremor with all the top-of-the-line features. The keys were delivered to Taylor and Alicia shortly after Father’s Day.
The couple plan to take their young daughter camping as their first big outing in their new truck.
Happy Mother’s and Father’s Day!
