Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Wade Miley high-fived his teammates after scratching off a winning lotto ticket good for $10,000. There was only one problem. The ticket was a fake. Aware of Miley's lottery ticket routine, D'backs teammate Will Harris purchased a fake winning ticket and orchestrated an impressive prank. And Miley fell for it.
Unfortunately for Miley, his teammates filmed the whole thing. There's no video online yet, but we hope that changes soon!

Update: Here's the video.
