Pre-nuptial agreements, ermmm....yes surely?

There was one interesting court case in Arizona: W and H, married for years, file for divorce. On August 1, they go to court and state their marriage is irretrievably broken. On August 3, H buys a lottery ticket and wins over $1M. On August 8, the judgment is finalized and entered. Much litigation later, the court rules that both W and H get half the lottery proceeds because they were still married when the ticket was purchased.
