Dec. 12 (UPI) -- A $2 million winning Michigan Lottery ticket spent four months being driven around in the oblivious winner's truck.

The 29-year-old Isabella County man told Michigan Lottery officials he bought his $20 Money scratch-off ticket from the Shepherd E-Z Mart on East Wright Avenue in Shepherd.

"Every so often I will stop and buy an instant ticket after work," the player said. "About four months ago, I bought this Money ticket, but I didn't see any winnings on it when I scratched it, so I threw it in my center console with some other non-winning tickets."

The man said the ticket remained in his truck for the next four months.
