Oh, what an irony, a 98-year-old man just wont a lottery, maybe it is the greatest gift he had ever received in his life, but before he had the chance to spend it he died the next day.

This is not the first story of its kind, several man had been reported died receiving the same fate just like the old man.

In 2008, a man died after winning a lottery worth half-million dollar but he died the next day, he was apparently fatally poisoned with cyanide. 

In 2009, Peters bought two Connecticut Lottery tickets at a local 7-Eleven store on Nov. 1 as part of a 20-year tradition he shared with his wife Charlotte. Later that day, the 79-year-old retired hat factory worker suffered a fatal heart attack while working in his yard in Danbury, Peters never knew he had won a $10Million Lottery for his family.
