Statistically Unlikely Events That Happened to Everyday People

I feel like the entire concept of scratch cards is based on the one-in-a-million chance that you turn out like this guy to make the rest of us forget that we’ve never won anything. Somehow, we hear that one person made it big off these cards, and we no longer remember all the times we lost.

Wouldn’t it be the coolest thing ever to win such an outlandish thing? Sure, we have all purchased these scratch-its from time to time, thinking it might be something fun and entertaining to do. But we never imagine that we will actually win anything!
