An 84-year-old Michigan man says he went into shock after he won a Michigan Lottery jackpot prize worth $111,368.

James Conley of Hesperia won on a Jackpot Slots Fast Cash ticket he purchased Jan. 16 at Freeman's Leaky Tap located at 10193 Dickinson Avenue in Walkerville, according to the Michigan Lottery.

Hesperia and Walkerville are located about 60 and 75 miles northwest of Grand Rapids, respectively.

"I play Fast Cash a lot and I bought a ticket as soon as I got to the bar," Conley told the Michigan Lottery. "I saw the three jackpot symbols right away and I went into shock. A few people at the bar scanned the ticket on the Lottery app to confirm I really did win, and the owner confirmed it too. Once everyone there knew I won, let’s just say I quickly became popular! Everyone was excited for me."

Conley recently collected his winnings and plans to save the money.

"Winning has me feeling thrilled, nervous, happy, and everything in between," Conley said.

Fast Cash games are a series of instant-win games that print from terminals at Michigan Lottery retailers. Tickets range in price from $2 to $20 per play. Fast Cash games have a progressive jackpot that can be won instantly. All the Fast Cash games feed into one jackpot.
