Up North man wins $1 million on Michigan Lottery instant ticket
A Michigan man decided to test his lucky streak on a Michigan Lottery instant game and ended up winning $1 million. The 42-year-old Emmet County man won the prize on a Diamond Wild Time ticket, according to the Michigan Lottery. "I have been playing this game since it came out because I have had pretty good luck with it," the man told the Michigan Lottery. "I stopped to get an energy drink and saw they had the Diamond Wild Time game, so I purchased one ticket. 'When I scratched the ticket and saw I won $1 million, I had to pinch myself because I thought I was dreaming! I drove straight to my sister's house to show her, and she thought it was one of those prank lottery tickets. She scanned it on her Michigan Lottery app, and that's when we knew I really did just win $1 million. Winning such a big prize is shocking, overwhelming, and everything in between.' He purchased his ticket at Tom and Dick's Inc. located at 921 Emmet St. in Petoskey.

He plans to use the money to buy a car and invest. Diamond Wild Time tickets cost $20 each. The game started with three top prizes of $1,000,000 and all have been claimed.

What was Detroit like in the 1960s? Take a look back in time.
It was the best of times — and the boiling point. In the 1960s, Detroit roared with the sounds of new muscle cars and the distinctive sounds of Motown. Woodward Avenue was the glittering spine of the city, lined with movie theaters, shops and crowds. At Motown's Hitsville U.S.A., Berry Gordy was changing the sound of America, while downtown department stores like Hudson's remained bustling centers of fashion and community life. But beneath the rhythm of those radio hits and the hum of the assembly line, tensions between police and the city's Black residents were brewing in the neighborhoods, ultimately leading to a deadly five-day uprising. Take a look back at Detroit in the 1960s with our curated photo gallery, featuring images from the Free Press archives and beyond, capturing the city's highs, lows and everyday life during a decade that changed everything.
