Husband brings $100K-winning lottery ticket home to 'trick' wife: 'About broke my neck'

A Missouri lottery player realized that he won $100,000 on a scratch-off game before scratching the card completely, and then brought the ticket home to his wife to surprise her.

A long-time lottery player in Missouri surprised his wife with a scratch-off ticket that was a $100,000 winner.

The husband, whose name was not released by the Missouri Lottery, picked up a "$100 Million Cash Bonanza" ticket in Ballwin, a suburb of St. Louis. The game costs $20 to play.

"I’ve been playing that ticket for a while. I really like them," the lucky customer told Missouri Lottery officials.
