"Somebody posted on Facebook that there had been a $111,000 Show Me Cash winner sold at The Gas Station, in our hometown," Matherly said. "I told my wife, 'I think I've got that ticket out there on my dash.'"
The player retrieved the ticket and used the Missouri Lottery's mobile app to confirm it was the $111,000 jackpot winner.
"That ticket had been riding around on my dash all weekend," he said. "I'm surprised it didn't blow out!"
