Little Hocking resident wins $100,000 Indians/Reds instant game top prize
Monday, August 20, 2007

LITTLE HOCKING... Tonia Reed, 34, manager at the People’s News & Books of Belpre, suggested her boyfriend choose a few more instant tickets after winning $10 on an instant ticket purchase.

“Why not try for the Indians/Red’s ticket,” she says, knowing he liked the Cincinnati Reds. “I thought he’d at least have a chance to enter the second-chance drawing,” she says.

He ended up winning the $100,000 top prize for the $5 Indians/Reds instant game from The Ohio State Lottery, and gave her the winning ticket to claim the prize.

Both are regular Lottery players. Tonia says she will use the money to help pay off their house and other bills. They’ll also treat themselves to a NASCAR race. The ticket had a “winning numbers” and “your numbers” match of “20” – the number of their favorite race card driver Tony Stewart.
