FRIEND PICKS $20,000 WINNING TICKET
April 2, 2008
TOPEKA, KAN. – Saturday evening, Cindy Sesker stopped at a convenience store to visit a friend who was working. The Baldwin City resident purchased a couple of donuts and asked her friend to pick out a $2 scratch ticket for her to play. Unbeknownst to her friend, she handed Sesker a $20,000 winning $2 Bonus Crossword instant scratch ticket.
“I hardly ever buy $2 tickets,” said Sesker. “I had $2 left after buying the donuts, so I asked my friend to pick out a $2 ticket. I scratched my ticket in the store and jumped up and down when I realized I’d won.”
After calming down, Sesker signed the back of her ticket and drove home to show her husband Aaron.
“He thought it was a fake ticket,” said Sesker. “But after reading the ticket closely, he knew it was real.”
Sesker and her husband, who have three children, plan to buy a computer with some of their prize money. The rest, she said, will go into a savings account.
“I also plan to take my friend out for a steak dinner and a movie,” said Sesker.
The winning ticket was purchased at Santa Fe Market, Inc., located at 522 Ames, in Baldwin City.
