COLUMBIA, SC (August 17, 2023) – An Upstate man has won $75,000 on a $3 Bingo style scratch-off ticket.
“It was exhilarating,” the winner told South Carolina Education Lottery officials.
He says the whole time he was scratching off the ticket, he was thinking that this was going to be it. And his hunch was right.
The scratch-off he picked out at the Echo Valley store at 4045 Geer Hwy. in Cleveland, a community near Travelers Rest, won him a big, five-figure payday. He already knows how he’s spending it.
“I’m going to buy a truck,” the winner said.
The winning ticket was bought for $3 at the Echo Valley in Cleveland. The store received a commission of $750 for selling it.
Two top prizes of $75,000 remain in the Bingo X20 game at odds of 1 in 660,000.
