A North Carolina man won a $150,000 prize from a lottery scratch-off ticket he purchased while visiting Ohio for work.
The winner, identified only as Gerardo, told Ohio lottery officials that he is from Gaston, North Carolina, but currently works in Ashtabula, the Telegraph reports.
Gerardo said he often buys lottery scratch-off tickets from the Village Food Mart located on South Main Street in North Kingsville, and he never expected to win much.
His lucky day came when he bought a $20 Monopoly Bonus Spectacular 100X scratch-off ticket and discovered a prize of $150,000.
The big winner said he plans to use his prize money to buy some exercise equipment to improve his health, and the rest will go towards savings and investments. /Telegraph//
