“Me and my husband love playing the Wild Time games,” Chislett-Barnes said. “We stopped at the gas station and purchased two Wild Time tickets and scratched them when we got in the car. When I saw I won $500,000, I started screaming and crying. I showed my family the winning prize amount and they all started cheering. Winning this money means everything to our family and came at the perfect time.”
Chislett-Barnes went to Michigan Lottery headquarters and claimed her prize. She plans to buy a home and save the rest of the money.
