Levi Robinette told Oregon Lottery officials he and his son decided they needed energy drinks after pulling an all-nighter to help his wife. He also bought a few $10 scratch-off tickets.

Robinette said his fatigue cleared up when he realized he had won a $100,000 jackpot from one of the tickets.

"I walked in to get an energy drink, and I walked out with $100,000!" he said.

Robinette claimed his prize after making an appointment and visiting the Salem headquarters last week.

He said he splurged after claiming his prize last week and bought a motorcycle, but the rest will go into savings.
