鈥淚 realized I was a winner and started jumping around a bit,鈥 he shared, admitting he was in a bit of shock when he learned the news.

鈥淚t鈥檚 hard to say鈥 I didn鈥檛 think it was real, and I had to check it again,鈥 he said of the moments after the lucrative realization became apparent.

鈥淚 had to check it three times before it really set in,鈥 Kennedy said.
