Howell man wins 100K in Michigan Lottery jackpot drawing

HOWELL - A Howell man’s decision to play the Monthly Jackpot game online paid off.

David Uhrin, 63, won $104,730 in a random Sept. 7 drawing, according to a Michigan Lottery press release.

He plans to use the winnings for home improvements and a vacation.

“I have been playing the Monthly Jackpot game quite a bit lately hoping to win big,” Uhrin told officials. “When I got a call telling me I’d won the second chance jackpot prize, I was amazed! I’ve always dreamt of winning big, and I can’t believe it actually happened!”

The online Monthly Jackpot game includes a monthly second chance progressive jackpot drawing for players. Every 50 cents wagered earns an entry into that month's second-chance jackpot drawing.

A new drawing period begins each month, and the progressive jackpot is reset to $5,000. The next drawing happens Nov. 9.
