COLUMBIA, SC (April 2, 2021) – An Orangeburg mother and son are sharing their $125,000 lottery win with the rest of the family.
For fun, the pair play the Lottery together. The son goes and buys the tickets and his mom scratches them.
The son told lottery officials he cashed in $30 worth of winning tickets at the Dollar Deals on Boulevard St. in Orangeburg and used the winnings to buy more tickets for his mom to scratch off.
Later his mom called and sounded like she was in distress. He rushed to check on her and found her clutching a top prize winning X The Money scratch-off ticket.
“It was unexpected,” he said.
The Orangeburg players overcame odds of 1 in 600,000 to win $125,000 in the $5 X The Money game. Two top prizes remain in the game.
Dollar Deals in Orangeburg received a commission of $1,250 for selling the claimed ticket.
