COLUMBIA, SC (June 22, 2021) – An Irmo woman was driving and had to pull over when the Lottery called to tell her she won $1 MILLION.
The winner’s husband was with her in the car when she found out a non-winning lottery ticket she’d entered into the Double Your Million! Second-Chance Drawing was picked from the more than 800,000 entries received to win the $1 million grand prize.
“I can’t drive anymore,” she told her husband as she tried to process the news, so he took the wheel.
His first words, “This must be a scam.”
It was real.
A few days later the couple was back in the car headed to the Lottery’s Claims Center in Downtown Columbia to collect their $1 million prize.
“I never thought this would happen,” the millionaire said. “It’s unbelievable.”
