Boisean Finds $10,000 Winning Lottery Ticket Very Bewitching!

BOISE – It’s not magic but just good fortune this time for Marc Lileks who won $10,000 on a $2 Bewitched scratch ticket. 

An avid lottery player, Marc picked up a string of Pac-Man tickets, his favorite game, and had the clerk at a Boise Jackson’s toss in a Bewitched ticket at the last minute. When he brought the tickets home, Marc couldn’t contain his excitement when he scratched the winner. 

“I shouted and she thought I hit my head or fell or something,” he said of his girlfriend’s reaction. “When I told her, she was even more excited than me!”  

Now with the prize Marc plans to fix his truck. He also plans to buy an engagement ring and propose to his longtime girlfriend. “Now I don’t have any more excuses,” he said laughing. 

The winning ticket was purchased at a Jacksons in Boise.
