THREE RIVERS, Mich. — A Three Rivers man decided to buy some Fast Cash tickets at the Elks Lodge recently, and you can bet he's happy he did. 

Nathan Brown, 37, ended up with a winning Diamond Wild Time Progressive Fast Cas Jackpot from the Michigan Lottery, to the tune of $345,835.

"I looked the Diamond Wild Time Progressive ticket over and was in disbelief when I realized how much we’d won," Bronw said. “I had the bartender scan the ticket to confirm what I was seeing. When the message to file a claim came up, my girlfriend scanned the ticket on her Lottery app. Confetti came up on the screen with the winning amount, and that's when we knew it was real. We were both in shock!”

Brown recently visited Lottery headquarters to claim his prize. 

He said he plans to invest his winnings.

Michigan Lottery says Fast Cash games are a series of instant-win games that print from terminals at Lottery retailers. Fast Cash tickets range in price from $2 per play up to $20 per play.

Fast Cash games offer a progressive jackpot that can be won instantly. Every Fast Cash ticket gives players a chance to win all or part of the progressive jackpot. 

All of the Fast Cash games feed into one jackpot, which grows with every ticket purchased. The current jackpot amount prints on each ticket, so players always know the amount of the jackpot up for grabs. The jackpot may be won at any time. As soon as the jackpot is hit, a new one starts to grow.
