"After I matched three, I was pretty happy. Then, I matched the fourth and thought: 'Wow! I really have a shot to win this thing!' I slowly uncovered the fifth number, and when I saw the three, my heart started jumping. When I saw I had matched the number 39, I about fell off the couch!"

Osantowski told the lottery he plans to put in a new pole barn and save whatever is left over.

"Winning is a real gift. We'd been trying to figure out how to pay for a new pole barn, and then I won this prize. It really was the luckiest day of my life!" Osantowski shared.
