Florida Lottery

ORLANDO, Fla. — Luck has struck for the third time for a central Florida man.

James Bush of South Daytona is one of three $1 million winners to claim their Firecracker Millionaire Raffle prize so far from the Florida Lottery. He bought the ticket in Port Orange.

But this isn't the first time the 50-year-old has claimed a winning ticket.

On his way to Florida Lottery headquarters, he bought a Billion Dollar Blockbuster scratch-off ticket and won $1,000. And in 2007, he won $500,000 in the Gold Rush scratch-off game.

No, God loves everybody equally. Its just not time your time  to win. You should be happy for the man just as you would be happy if you did win.

No god will help you win the lottery. It's just pure coincidencee whether you win one time or three.
