A guy’s thirst ended up netting him $10 million dollars after stopping off at a Sonoma gas station for a drink and a Scratchers ticket. Ronald Lopez was thirsty, so he made a pit stop at the 76 gas station on Arnold Drive. And, he must have been feeling lucky because he also decided to buy a $30 Dazzler Scratcher ticket. Well, he started scratching and saw the number $10 million! He says he didn’t believe it at first and was in tears. To make sure he wasn’t seeing things, he showed the clerk who could only say, ‘Oh my God!’

Now, he’s just got to decide whether to take the lump sum or get $400,000 a year for 25 years. And, which sports car to buy first and how many bedrooms he wants in his new house!
