Ha!! Fantastic. I, as a general rule, hate the fake lottery ticket prank but this was perfect.
This may be the best 750 word story I have ever read on this site. Thank you
Now THAT was a gem! Exactly what a 750 word flash should be able to do! Bravo!

This was cute--- even a little funny. but not realistic. In the eyes of the law that is THEIR money not hers. They're married, he would've gotten half of the winnings. Cause she won it during marriage. There was a lady that won the lottery and didn't tell her husband. She just filed for divorce and thoughts he didn't have to give her ex husband anything. Well when she went to go cash in her ticket, her ex found out, dragged her ass back into court and the judge awarded the husband all the money. Cause he considered what she did was trying to hide money from her ex. Most judges don't like when folks try to scam the other using the court system.
Devious, but effective! Great story! Loved it and the hearty laugh it gave me! Thanks!
I usually hate 750 stories but there's always the exception, this was it. 5 stars. Great story!
That was excellent... and it was only a 750 word story!
Miles better than all the tedious cuckathons I've read so far tonight.
OMG that was fucking awesome!!!
You sir have the makings of a junior God here, if you keep it up.
Oh hell no! You didn’t just do that. Great story, and even greater way to flush out a cheating wife.
Great little tale. Well done and thank you. Absolute respect for the flag image too!
I enjoyed that! Delightful. It just goes to show that you can be a happy man without winning the lottery.
That worked well! It was hilarious and the name you chose for the other man? Absolutely priceless! 5*
Wonderful story! Bloody brilliant! 5/5 Stars, full house, I did enjoy ii! Good to have a laugh, for a change!
Well done, thanks!
As soon as she finds out she will be right back. There was no divorce here. If Jimmy was prepared to pay her way, she would have already left. Seriously, though, that was what she was counting on all these years?
It was amusing, though, and she has outed herself.
Lol nice. But would have been funny to read her breakdown and how sheepish she would be.
Different take on the challenge but it’s a fun one! Really nice job!
Best 750 ever. Me and a friend pulled this exact ruse on another friend. Left him "wow" for a day. Then he realizzed after we told him to verify the numbers. He was pissed then we took him out and paid for a great time. He was stilled pissed but with a smile on his face.
Very nice. Very nice indeed. A solid 4. Some have commented they'd like to see what happened when Isla realizes it was a hoax. I think it's better left as it is. And nice crossover between St. Patrick's and April Fool's.

Nice.
This was a well done flash story.
And funny too.
Deserves top ratings from me.
Very good story, would like to see try to crawl back after she finds out the truth
Funny and concise. Liked the idea that her lover's same was Jimmy Riddel, a name I haven't heard of for years but years ago in UK it was slang for having a piss as in "I'm just off for a Jimmy riddle"
Pretty cool story...
Just shows you never really know anyone completely...
She got exactly what she deserved...

Very clever. But wouldn't he be entitled to HALF of any lottery winnings in the divorce? And it's impossible to get a divorce that quickly so wouldn't she, when she finds out that she didn't win, come crawling back saying she knew it was an April Fool's Joke and that she wanted to play along with it and get the better of him with her own joke? Just to insure she got her fair share in the divorce? Funny story.
Extremely clever and quite easy to do actually. Also so far this is the only good story in this event
Damn good April fool’s trick!
Might have been better, if he’d let her find out from the lottery people, when she argued that she’d won. Then serve her the next day.
Very good little story. I hate lotteries in any case, so she gets what she deserves.
Well done! I wonder if it has happened in real life or something similar? 5 BIG FAT FLUFFY STARS!
LOL. Loved it. Great story, 5 stars worth, definitely. Thanks for posting.
