"I won $15 yesterday playing golf in a golf league so I figured, what the heck," Bock said.
Bock said he was stunned to scratch off a $250,000 prize.
"I'm still shaking, I can't believe it," Bock said. "Holy cow."
Bock said his oversized ceremonial check will have a new home beside his two hole-in-one trophies.
"My beautiful wife is going to decide what we spend this on," Bock said of his prize money, adding that he would be getting himself a new set of golf clubs.
