Man plans to buy house, car and trip to Disney World with $1 million Powerball winnings

CASS COUNTY, Mich. (Gray News) – A man in Michigan who won a $1 million Powerball prize will be using some of his winnings to visit “the happiest place on Earth.”

Cain Bice, 31, matched the five white balls in the April 6 drawing, winning the big prize. Bice said he bought his lucky ticket on the Michigan Lottery’s website.

Bice said he bought more Powerball tickets than he usually does because the jackpot had reached over $1 billion.

“The morning after the drawing, I logged into my Michigan Lottery account and saw a lot of zeros in my account balance,” he said. “I rubbed my eyes thinking I was still dreaming. Once I realized I had really won $1 million, I started shouting in excitement!”

Bice said his wife responded to his excitement, asking him what was going on. After he informed her he had won, Bice said the two called the rest of their family to tell them the good news.

Bice then made the trip to the Michigan Lottery headquarters to claim his prize. With his winnings, he said he plans to buy a house, a car, and a visit to Disney World.

“Winning is unreal. I keep waiting to wake up because it still feels like a dream,” he said.
