COLUMBIA, SC (February 3, 2022) – It’s fitting a $30,000 prize on the Happy Pawlidays! scratch-off was won by a dog owner on Christmas Eve.
“We’re a dog family,” the Fort Mill player told South Carolina Education Lottery officials.
Just like him, the eight dogs featured on the holiday-themed, $2 scratch-off are winners too. The pups, from right here in South Carolina, received the most votes in a dog photo contest the Lottery hosted on its website in the spring.
The winner told lottery officials that it’s a family tradition to gather at the holidays and scratch tickets. And the family scratched several of the Happy Pawlidays! tickets on Christmas Eve, but his ticket got everyone’s attention.
“It was exciting,” he said. “We took turns passing the ticket around and looking it over.”
And the winner gifted the prize money to his kids for their college funds.
The win leaves two more top prizes remaining in the Happy Pawlidays! game at odds of 1 in 480,000.
