MICHIGAN — A Shiawassee County man recently hit the largest Michigan Fast Cash jackpot ever, according to lottery officials.

The man, who chose to remain anonymous, won a $2.39 million jackpot prize playing the Jackpot Slots Millionaire game on March 1, according to lottery officials.

The man said he bought the ticket after winning a large prize on Daily 3 tickets.

"I played 6-6-6 on a couple of Daily 3 tickets and won big," he told lottery officials. "I decided to take $100 of my winnings and buy some Fast Cash tickets because the jackpot was so huge."

He then said he quickly scanned the tickets and was shocked to find that he had won the $2.39 million jackpot.

"We started celebrating in the store and then I got to make the best phone call I’ve ever made to my family and friends to tell them the news," he told lottery officials. "Everyone has been so happy for me and my wife!"

The man bought his winning ticket at King’s Corner Market of Owosso, located at 701 North Washington Street in Owosso, according to lottery officials.

With his winnings, he plans to pay bills and then invest the remainder, according to lottery officials.

The big prize set a record for the largest prize ever won on the Fast Cash games.

The previous record was set in November 2019, when Rodney Stokoszynski, of Wayne County won a $1.84 million Fast Cash progressive, according to lottery officials.
