A Boston guy grabs $100,000 recently in a lottery game recently

A Boston man is celebrating after discovering a winning lottery ticket worth $100,000 just days before it was due to expire.

According to reports, the lucky winner had purchased the ticket back in September 2020, but had forgotten about it until stumbling upon it while cleaning his house recently.

The man, who has chosen to remain anonymous, said he was "shocked" to discover that he had won the prize, and described the experience as "surreal".

He has since claimed his winnings from the Massachusetts State Lottery and said he plans to use the money to pay off some bills and make a donation to a local charity.

The incident serves as a reminder to lottery players to always check their tickets, as unclaimed prizes often go to waste.
