“I went home and scratched the ticket,” Stoliker says. “I started freaking out. I wanted to scream.”
Stoliker went back to the convenience store where he bought the ticket to confirm he was now a millionaire.
When he found out it was true, the first thing he did was call his mom.
Stoliker says the $1 million will allow him to pursue his dream of launching his own landscaping company.
