COLUMBIA, SC (March 17, 2022) – A Spartanburg man bought a lottery ticket and scratched off a $200,000 win at the store counter.

His expression got the store clerk’s attention, who sold him the ticket at the Hot Spot on Gossett Rd. in Spartanburg. She asked to see it.

“Don’t you say anything,” the clerk said when she saw his prize.

“Don’t you say anything either,” the winner responded.

He still cannot believe he beat the 1 in 870,000 odds to win $200,000 on a $5 scratch-off.

“It is unbelievable,” he said.

The win leaves three top prizes remaining in the 20X The Money game.

For selling the claimed ticket, Hot Spot #6007 in Spartanburg received a commission of $2,000.
