DES MOINES, Iowa — A West Des Moines man is $100,000 richer after winning one of the top prizes in an Iowa Lottery scratch-off ticket game.

The Iowa Lottery said Jeff Spiess, 59, stayed calm and collected as he shared the news with his wife. “I didn’t jump up and down or anything. I was really quiet about it,” said Spiess.

He and his wife were scratching off “X the Money” tickets after dinner when he noticed he’d won $100,000. Before telling his wife, he checked it several times and scanned it with the Iowa Lottery app. Spiess told his wife to watch his phone as he scanned the ticket a second time, not telling her up front that he knew the ticket was already a winner.

His wife gasped and hugged him after she saw the prize of $100,000.

Spiess claimed his prize Thursday. He said he may put the money toward paying bills, saving for retirement, and buying a new car.

The ticket was bought at the Hy-Vee Fast & Fresh at 425 S. Jordan Creek Parkway in West Des Moines.
