A Florida man is in jail because authorities say he tried to buy lotto tickets with movie money.

Timothy Zimmerman allegedly tried to buy scratch-off tickets with a $100 bill that had the words “for motion picture use only” labeled on it, according to WFLA.

Once he was confronted about trying to use the fake money, Zimmerman took off, but he was arrested a short time later.

He was released on $2,000 bond. It's unclear if he has an attorney.
