A lottery fan from Maryland felt an unexpected thrill when his small investment of spare change turned into a hefty six-figure win from a scratch-off ticket. This week, the Maryland Lottery shared the excitement of a man from Prince George's County who hit the jackpot in their highly popular MONOPOLY X50 scratch-off game.
The player was in disbelief after $10 ticket turned into $100K windfall
A man from Clinton shared a moment of triumph after his usual routine of playing Pick 3 and Pick 4 games took a serendipitous twist. When he found himself with $10 to spare, he decided to try his luck on a scratch-off ticket — a choice he often makes when loose change finds its way into his pocket. This time, his cash led him to Marlboro Village Exxon on John Roger Boulevard in Upper Marlboro, where he picked up a MONOPOLY X50 scratch-off ticket. There was no special reason behind his choice; it was simply the first one he noticed. After buying the ticket, he laid it aside and nearly forgot about it, only to rediscover it two weeks later. To his amazement, he'd matched the number 54, which carried a stunning $100,000 prize, one of the game's top awards. Overcome with disbelief, the Prince George's County resident found himself checking the ticket repeatedly to ensure his eyes hadn't deceived him. Earlier this week, he made his way to the Lottery headquarters in Baltimore, ready to claim his life-changing prize. When asked about his plans for the windfall, he smiled, choosing to keep the exciting news to himself. However, with a sparkle in his eye, he shared plans to invest his winnings and treat himself to a new fence for his home.
