While a third commented: I’ve always joked that this is what would happen to me if I won a huge payout on a scratch off ticket.

Someone else said: He must have had a dodgy heart already, so the win did him the "favour" of it happening in a public place where he could receive urgent attention. 

Another added: So glad that he survived! 

I think God has a wonderful, and really dry, sense of humor. Another user added.
