Lucky is just an understatement for a recent Powerball winner who reportedly won a whopping $1 million. But what’s even more interesting is that the winning numbers came from the store name and the race cars that the winner was apparently drooling over.
According to sources, the winner was browsing through a convenience store when he noticed a pack of gum with the word “speedway” on it. That’s when a light bulb went off in his head and he realized that the store’s name, Speedway, was the perfect source for inspiration for his lottery numbers. As if that wasn’t creative enough, the winner also chose to include numbers related to his favorite race cars.
“Who says you can’t win big with a little bit of creative thinking,” the lucky winner reportedly said to a group of reporters.
The news of this unconventional way of selecting Powerball numbers has apparently taken the world by storm. Social media is rife with comments and memes on the same, with some even suggesting that they will start taking inspiration from their favorite fast-food chain names or car models to pick their own Powerball numbers.
News outlets from across the country are now chasing the winner for an interview; some even offering him a chance to become a guest on a plethora of talk shows. Many are curious to find out what the winner plans to do with his newfound wealth. However, the Powerball winner doesn’t seem too interested in sharing his future plans just yet.
“If I told you, it wouldn’t be a surprise anymore,” the winner quipped.
Regardless of what the winner plans on doing with his newfound wealth, one thing is for sure- he is now part of the elusive millionaire’s club. The news of the Powerball win has apparently spread like wildfire across the country, making everyone who hasn’t won the jackpot just a little bit envious.
When asked what advice he had to offer for aspiring Powerball winners, the man had a simple answer- “use your imagination and go for it.”
Well, there you have it, folks. It looks like picking Powerball numbers can be as easy as taking inspiration from your favorite store or race cars. Who knew that winning big could be just a moment of inspiration away?
It remains to be seen whether others will follow in the footsteps of the latest Powerball winner, but one thing is for sure- everyone is eagerly looking forward to the next big jackpot win and scouring their surroundings for creative inspiration.
