Andrew Hunter, a 24-year-old server at a Dawsonville, Georgia, Taco Mac restaurant, tossed a lottery ticket in the trash last week. He thought it was worthless."I didn't realize you could win $3 for matching one number plus the Mega Ball," Hunter told the Georgia Lottery.
Once he realized his ticket could pocket him a few dollars after all, he fished it out of the garbage and took it to a nearby convenience store. There, he used his $3 in winnings to buy three $1 Mega Millions tickets.
One of those tickets won him $250,000.
