FRASER, Mich. – A Macomb County man used the same numbers he received in a fortune 30 years ago and won a $1 million lottery prize.
Stephen Huesgen, 56, of Fraser, matched the five white balls (24-29-32-49-63) in the April 22 drawing.

The man used the numbers from a fortune he got decades ago.
“30 years ago, I was in Las Vegas and got a fortune from a Zoltar machine,” said Huesgen. “On my fortune, there was a set of lucky numbers, I have been playing those numbers on lottery games ever since.”
The man woke up to his winning results from an e-mail.
“I yelled to my wife: ‘Is this real?’ I don’t think this is going to fully hit me until I cash the check,” said Huesgen.
He bought the winning ticket online.
With his winnings, he plans to pay off his house and car, take a vacation, and save for retirement.
