An unemployed man's 30 or so entries in the Colorado Lottery/State Fair second chance drawing paid off Monday.

Joseph Abeyta, 42, won a 2010 Dodge Challenger in the second chance drawing, according to the Pueblo Chieftain.

The newspaper reported that Abeyta had been driving a 1980 Chevy van.

Abeyta told the newspaper his wife and other relatives teased him about going through the trouble to write his name, address and phone number on the back of 30 or so losing Lotto and scratch tickets he had saved throughout the year to enter in the Fair drawing.
