COLLECTS 1 YEAR
AFTER TOSSING JACKPOT
TICKETHere's a guy who figured out how to be both the luckiest and unluckiest man on the face of the earth at the same time.
One crazy afternoon in June of last year, maintenance man Degli Martinez learned he had won a $65 million Lotto jackpot - the largest single prize in the 30-year history of the state Lotto game.
He then promptly lost the ticket.
That began a yearlong odyssey of hand-wringing and heartburn before Lottery officials were finally able to hand Martinez his check yesterday.
Good luck here.

Boy oh boy, talk about being two times lucky. I can’t even win once, can you?
