White Elephant can be a pretty fun game, unless somebody steals the gift you really wanted and you end up stuck with something you aren't really that into. Still, there's a bit of a thrill in not knowing what you're going to end up with.
Typically done around the holidays with large groups of friends or coworkers, you really never know what you're going to end up with until the game is done. If you're lucky enough, you might get something you could really use. Or you could end up with something fun, like a lottery ticket. Of course, there's a good chance your lottery ticket won't get you very far. Unless you're incredibly lucky, that is.
A Kentucky woman got the surprise of her life after ending up with $25 in lottery scratch cards during her workplace White Elephant exchange at a holiday party. When she scratched them, she realized that she'd won the $175,000 jackpot.
