Christopher Hertzog knows how to lose things. Valuable things. Once, the 16-year veteran of the Phoenix Fire Department lost a $10,000 Rolex watch while fishing.
But that’s nothing compared to the winning Kentucky Derby superfecta ticket Hertzog "lost" on Saturday at Turf Paradise Race Course. The $1 ticket was worth $864,253.
But through a strange series of events, Hertzog was reunited 24 hours later with his ticket and collected his winnings, less $259,276 withheld for taxes.
Thanks to Omni's funnier article. [Yes, I was just catching up with you today, Omni. As always, it's all interesting and chuckle-worthy (I'm sure I got that term from Ayn Rand).]
Have you contacted that guy yet?
