COLUMBIA, SC (February 28, 2020) – An Upstate woman’s bad mood turned around when she played the Lottery and won $250,000.
Jennifer Flannery was on her way to work when she bought the winning ticket at the Speedway #4571 on E. Main St. in Spartanburg. She scratched the ticket at work and told her boss she had to leave.
“I was shaking and hyperventilating,” the Spartanburg resident said.
With the prize money, Flannery plans to adopt her grandchildren.
“Then we’re going to take our first family vacation,” she said.
Four top prizes of $250,000 remain in the $10 Queen of Hearts game, at odds of 1 in 936,000.
Non-winning Queen of Hearts and King of Spades instant tickets can be entered in the Game of Suits Second-Chance Drawing for a chance to win $500,000. Players can enter using the SC Lottery App or online at sclottery.com.
For selling the claimed ticket, Speedway #4571 in Spartanburg received a commission of $2,500.
