COLUMBIA, SC (November 6, 2019) – A Goose Creek, SC, man has come forward to claim a $25,910 jackpot from the South Carolina Education Lottery.
Kenneth Burgess dreamed one night that he won one of the MONOPOLY JACKPOT Second-Chance drawings only to have his dreams come true a few days later! He went to claim his prize during his lunch break while in Columbia for a training seminar.
“I’m so pumped right now, I’m not even hungry,” exclaimed Burgess. “I’ll celebrate with some water and crackers later.”
Burgess is a regular instant ticket player.
“This is my first big win and it’s a happy surprise. My family will now have a nest egg and we’re sure to have a great holiday season,” said Burgess.
Burgess’s non-winning MONOPOLY JACKPOT instant ticket earned him a winning entry in the Lottery’s fourth of five Rolling Cash Jackpot drawings. Just over 1.7 million entries were collected for the drawing on Tuesday, November 5.
“I can now finally fulfill another dream and invest in some land,” said Burgess.
A final drawing to award a $250,000 prize, with a chance to multiply up to $2.5 million, will be held at the conclusion of the MONOPOLY JACKPOT Second-Chance Promotion. That date is still to be determined. For details and updates, visit sclottery.com.
