If your state's lottery isn't bringing you any luck or it doesn't have one, why not play a neighboring state's lottery? That's exactly what a man in Illinois did and is now $10,000 richer.

Luckily for him, he didn't have to drive far since he lives in western Illinois and Iowa is just a short drive away. But if crossing the Mississippi River meant you would become $10,000 richer, wouldn't you do it too?

Illinois Man Wins $10,000 Playing Neighboring State's Lottery

An Illinois man has won a $10,000 Iowa Lottery prize on a ticket he purchased just down the road and across the Mississippi River from the town he lives in.

Jose Cossio of Morrison, Ill., won the 19th prize of $10,000 in the Iowa Lottery's 'Lucky 7 Bonus" scratch game. He purchased his winning ticket at Hy-Vee Fast & Fresh, 809 S. Fourth St. in Clinton. He claimed his prize Friday at the lottery's Cedar Rapids regional office.
