BUSBY, Mont. – A waitress at a bar south of Busby got a generous tip, but it only got better when she used it to buy a Montana Lottery scratch-off ticket.
Lea Hunts Along turned her $50 tip into a $70,000 dollar win.
She was working at the Kirby Saloon when a patron tipped her, and she decided to buy a scratch ticket.
She put the ticket away and scratched it at the end of her shift, hoping to win a couple hundred bucks.
But instead, it was a $70,000 winner!
She said her family is still planning on how to use the money and calls it a blessing.
