Must Be Nice! Man Buys a Lottery Ticket While Grabbing Slim Jims for His Dog, Wins $10 Million

A New York man’s unusual diet for his dog has paid off in a major way.

via NYDN:

New York Lottery officials say Monday that 73-year-old Dale Farrand recently won the $10 million prize on a Cash Spectacular scratch-off ticket.

The Fort Edward man says he bought a $30 ticket at a local Cumberland Farms convenience store while buying Slim Jims snacks for his dog Boots.

He scratched the ticket in his car and realized he was a winner. Farrand says he drove straight home and had his wife check the ticket for him.

Farrand will receive a lump-sum payment of $6.7 million after required withholdings.

He says he’ll use the windfall to pay off his mortgage, make home improvements and help his children and grandchildren.

Hopefully he’ll use some of that money to buy his dog a lifetime supply of Slim Jims.
