SINGLE DAD TREATS DAUGHTER TO VACATION & QUINCEAÑERA
June 20, 2009
SACRAMENTO - The California Lottery's TV game show, "Make Me a Millionaire," awarded $117,000 in cash and prizes to 12 lucky contestants this week.
Jose Martinez, a single father from Pomona, walked away with $24,000 after playing the Safe Cracker game. Martinez plans to use a portion of his prize to help ring in his daughter’s 15th birthday. “I gave her the choice between having a quinceañera or going to Hawaii,” he said. “Now I can give her both!”
Two other contestants – Eric Sonne of Seaside and William Boman of Lee Vining – won a new car, the Limited Edition California Jetta made by Volkswagen. Bowman and his wife of forty-one years manage the Murphy’s Motel on the eastern entrance of Yosemite National Park. Sonne, a small business owner, won his way onto the game show after his wife purchased Scratchers tickets for him on his birthday. He said he wasn’t nervous on the show because he has experience acting in community theater.
