Eugene Brown, a known prankster from Menifee, California, shocked his wife with a $5 million lottery win after initially convincing her it wasn't a joke. Brown bought the winning ticket while out with their toddler, and it was a serendipitous stop at their local ARCO ampm store. Upon revealing the ticket, his wife was skeptical due to Brown's history of pranks. After confirming the win, the family plans to pay off their house and invest the remaining funds into a trust, amidst the backdrop of extremely low lottery winning odds.
"If she hadn't asked me to go out, I might not have gone to the store. Somebody else would've gotten that ticket. But everything lined up in the universe."
"It took some convincing, but Brown persuaded his wife they were a few million dollars richer. He told lottery officials he planned to pay off his house then put the rest into a trust."
