据外媒报道，美国伊利诺伊州73岁男子马丁.富恩特斯（Martin Fuentes）最近中了一份20万美元的大奖，这次幸运获奖经历，竟然与他和妈妈一起吃的一顿中餐有关。
据报道，3年前的某日，富恩特斯和妈妈一起吃外卖打包的中餐，中餐中附送的一个幸运饼干里有一组幸运数字。富恩特斯表示，妈妈知道我喜欢买乐透，她对我说，“你应该依据这组幸运数字去买乐透。”他同意了妈妈的建议。今年11月19日，富恩特斯依据中餐馆幸运饼干里的数字买的乐透中了全部5个号码：02、09、14、30、35。

Martin Fuentes is proof that it pays to be patient, to persevere and, of course, to listen to a mother who had a hunch about one particular fortune cookie.
The retired mailman from Des Plaines, Illinois, won a $200,000 jackpot prize by repeatedly playing the lucky numbers he found inside a fortune cookie three years ago while eating dinner with his mother.
“She knew that I liked to play the lotto and we were having takeout Chinese food, and as I'm cracking open a fortune cookie, she said, 'Well you should play these lucky numbers.' And I said OK, just for you, ma,” Fuentes, 73, told ABC News of his mom, who died about a year ago at age 90.
