Ansley Woman Claims Fifth Truck$ & Buck$ Truck
Marilyn Miller of Ansley is the fifth winner of a 2024 Ford F-150 XLT 4x4 SuperCrew truck in the 29th edition of the Nebraska Lottery’s $2 Truck$ & Buck$ Scratch game.
Miller purchased her winning Truck$ & Buck$ ticket at Casey’s #2068 at 609 Plum Creek Parkway in Lexington. She was presented with her new truck at Caseys on Thursday, August 8 by Nebraska Lottery officials.
Miller said she and her husband Duane were heading home from an auction in Grand Island and decided to stop in Lexington for some supper. They decided to make a quick trip to Casey’s to fill up their vehicle and she popped inside to cash in a few winning Scratch tickets.
“I won $20,” she said. “And so I took that $20 and spent $10 of it on five Truck$ & Buck$ tickets.”
One of those tickets ended up winning her the pickup. She called the Nebraska Lottery the next day and her truck was delivered to her in Lexington about a week later.
“I’m still speechless, I guess,” she said. “It’s just neat that I won.”
“That’s not even a once in a lifetime deal,” Duane added. “It’s probably once in ten lifetimes.”
