Without realizing it, a man in Western Australia had US$26.32 million in his pocket for a week. It came in the form of a lottery ticket he had forgotten he had purchased, and one trip through the washing machine could have been disastrous. The man's identity is unknown, but he bought the ticket at a corner store in Bennett Springs. The new multimillionaire, presented as a grandfather, purchased the ticket only an hour before the Powerball drawing last Saturday. He then stuffed the ticket into his pocket and promptly forgot about it.
