Husband's luck shines on wife's birthday, wins thousands of dollars in lottery

A man in the US was lucky on his wife's birthday.

Preston Fuqua, from the US state of Georgia, won the lottery of $10,000 on his wife's birthday.

According to a foreign news agency, Preston told Georgia Lottery officials that he was on vacation on his wife's birthday and stopped at a store in Gainesville and bought a Georgia Millionaire scratch-off ticket. As soon as he saw the prize on the ticket, he immediately called his wife.

Preston said that when he saw the $10,000 prize, he told his wife, but she couldn't believe it. He didn't believe it until he went to the Georgia Lottery office and sent his wife a photo of the prize check.

Preston said that he would use his prize wisely.
