Sneh Padarat bought a Western Max ticket for the May 3 draw at a Mac’s store the same weekend she moved. She buys tickets and never thinks she will actually win, so she just kept the ticket with some of her papers.
On July 23, more than two months after the draw date, she came across the ticket as she was sorting papers she had taken with her to the new house.
