ROCK HILL, S.C., Jan. 31 (UPI) -- A man from Rock Hill, S.C., says he won two $200,000 lotteries in the past four months.

The man, whose name was not released, hit both jackpots while playing the same instant game -- the $10 The Color of Money game -- with tickets purchased from retailers that were less than a mile apart, the (Rock Hill, S.C.) Herald reported.

His first win came in September and his second was earlier this week.

"This is so weird," the winner said.

"He just has a good energy around him," his wife said. "He's always been lucky, because he married me."
