David Schmitt of Hartland became the Wisconsin Lottery's latest Megabucks Millionaire, all because of a turkey hunting license. Schmitt was trying to get the license at the PDQ on Moraine Drive in Sussex, but due to technical issues the line wasn't moving. So he bought a Megabucks ticket instead. That Megabucks ticket ended up being the sole winning ticket of a $2.9 million jackpot, making Schmitt Wisconsin’s 64th Megabucks millionaire. |
