Bob Sabo of Easton, Connecticut, got himself flustered when he went out to buy his usual lottery scratchcard ticket last week. First he decided to use a vending machine for the first time because he didn't want to wait in line, then he realized he'd brought the wrong ticket because he didn't have his glasses on.

Which turned out to be quite lucky; when he scratched off the covering, that ticket won him $30,000, the top prize for the game.
