通常人们都认为好运不会总降临到一个人头上，就像买彩票中奖一样，一生中能中一次大奖就非常不容易了，不要想能有第二次中大奖的机会，但来自美国伊利诺伊州的居民斯科特偏偏打破了这个论断，在不到十年的时间内两次中得百万美元的大奖。

　　斯科特说，“我第一次中得百万美元大奖大约是在九年前，当时中的是‘幸福百万’彩票大奖。”他还说已经计划好如何花这笔奖金了，他会用这些钱来支付生活账单和两个年幼的孩子上大学的费用。

　　据伊利诺伊州彩票官员透露，斯科特的中奖彩票是在维拉公园附近的一家食品店购买的，向斯科特售出中奖彩票的这家食品店也因此得到了6000美元的奖金。这家食品店的经理帕特尔说，“他（斯科特）经常到我们店里买东西，我们很高兴他能中得大奖。”
