A German man has won €15.3 million in a lottery after discovering a forgotten ticket in his coat pocket six months after he bought it. But with the weather turning chilly in Germany, the man reached for a jacket he had not worn since March -- to discover the ticket in his pocket. "It wasn't until the weekend that I found the ticket again, folded up in the inside pocket of my jacket," the unidentified man was quoted as saying in a statement by Lotto Hessen. The man had even heard about the campaign to find the lucky winner. When asked what he was planning to do with his winnings, the man said he would first buy a new living room sofa.
