COLUMBIA, SC (June 18, 2012) – An Aiken man quit getting ready for work when he realized he won $250,000 playing the Lottery.
“I ran through the house screaming with my drawers on,” he said.
The Mega Millions® winner took the day off but plans to continue working and buying tickets.
“I was one number off from the jackpot,” he laughed. “Of course I’ll keep playing.”
His ticket matched the first five numbers drawn (2, 27, 38, 46, and 52 MB: 45) on June 1.
The odds of winning $250,000 playing Mega Millions® are 1 in 3,904,701.
3 Way Food Mart 5 in Aiken received a commission of $2,500 for selling the claimed ticket.
