LAKE ORION, MI — A Lake Orion man said he "just about lost it" after winning a $160,405 jackpot prize while playing the Michigan Lottery’s Jackpot Slots Fast Cash game at a local bar, according to Michigan Lottery officials.
Rodd Cunningham, 49, bought his winning ticket on Nov. 27 at Old Detroit Bar and Grille, located at 741 South Lapeer Road in Lake Orion, according to Michigan Lottery officials.
Cunningham said he bought two Fast Cash tickets at the bar. One was a losing ticket, so he believed the ticket was a loser too, but he didn't have his glasses on, so he decided to scan them both on the app to be safe, he told lottery officials.
