Some people just have all the luck. Great story about a Seattle couple that got lucky twice with a losing lottery ticket.

A Seattle couple bought a lottery ticket in February and it did not win the $350 million jackpot. It was however redeemable for a secondary prize of $1 million, but they only recently learned that. What’s truly remarkable is not only did they not tear up the ticket before realizing the winnings, they were doubly fortunate that a thief who’d broken into their car in the interim decided not to take it. “Someone broke into our car a few weeks ago and stole a pair of sunglasses,” the couple told Washington state lottery officials. “The stolen sunglasses were actually sitting atop the winning ticket. What a close call!” Read more on the story here from KIRO.
