COLUMBIA, SC (October 5, 2022) – On the way to a family member’s birthday party, a Georgia woman played the South Carolina Education Lottery and celebrated a $1 MILLION win.
She FaceTimed her husband from the B K World at 3027 N. Main St. in Anderson to show him the $10 ticket she’d bought.
“You won $1 million, why are you so calm?” her husband asked.
“Because it hasn’t sunk in,” she said.
The couple made plans to meet after the birthday party and drive to Columbia to cash in the winning ticket.
The Lottery caught up with the millionaire a few days later. She says her husband has already bought something special for himself, but she hasn’t yet.
“Until I make a big purchase, it’s not real,” she said.
The Georgia woman overcame odds of 1 in 1,440,000 to win $1 million in the THE MILLION game. Two more top prizes remain in the game.
B K World in Anderson received a commission of $10,000 for selling the claimed ticket.
Players can enter their non-winning ($10) THE MILLION tickets into a second-chance drawing for a chance to win $1 million. For complete details on the THE MILLION Second-Chance Promotion, please visit sceducationlottery.com.
