(Scroll down for video) A man won a large amount of money thanks to his poor vision, lottery officials in Connecticut said.

Rather than waiting in the customer service line at the Super Stop & Shop in Fairfield, Bob Sabo of Easton, decided to do something he had never done before.

He bought his lottery tickets from a nearby instant ticket vending machine.

It was a spur of the moment decision that paid Sabo off handsomely, with a $30,000 top prize winning ticket.

“I bought the winning ticket by accident. I meant to buy two $20 tickets, but I didn’t have my glasses on,” Sabo told lottery officials with a laugh.

“Instead, I bought a ‘30X Cash’ ticket for $30 by mistake, which left me with $10 to buy another ticket. When I got home and scratched the 30X ticket, I couldn’t believe it. I won $30,000. Winning the way I did was a very freaky thing,” he said.

Super Stop & Shop #653, located at 760 Villa Avenue in Fairfield, will receive a $300 check from the CT Lottery for selling Sabo his $30,000 top prize winning ticket.

Simon Toon  By: Wayne Morin A teacher who was caught pleasuring himself while sitting at the desk of his classroom, told a judge that it was a private area, according to court documents in New Zealand. 55-year-old Simon Toon taught students at the Auckland Grammar School, when a student looked through a window of the class and saw him pleasuring himself. Toon was found guilty of committing an indecent act in a public place, and was sentenced to 80 hours of community service. Toon admitted to looking at 27 adult websites on a school computer during a lunch break, but argued that it was not a public place. However, the judge disagreed, saying that anyone could have entered the room. Toon was immediately suspended and he later resigned. Toon was also accused of rape, but police did not file charges due to insufficient evidence.
