Thomas says his son bought five Scratchers tickets at a Mobil station on Bellflower Boulevard in Long Beach on Oct. 16 by exchanging other winning tickets. One of the five was a winning ticket with a $5 million prize, the suit states. Thomas validated the ticket at a 7-Eleven store in Long Beach that same day and then validated it again the next day at the lottery office in Santa Ana, the suit states.

If the ticket is a bearer instrument, he could say Elvis, Jim Morrison and Amelia Earhart chipped in and bought it together. As long as he is in possession of it and signs his name to it, the prize is his.

There is a missing piece to this story, methinks.

For sure.

If I FIND a lottery ticket, and it has the right numbers, I’m a winner. Something about this isn’t right.
