Happy Wednesday!
This week we're talking experienced winners and new players who experienced the luck and fun of winning for the very first time.
Let's start with our newest lottery winner, Tyler from Lima! He doesn't normally play lottery games, but he was hanging out with his cousin who loves to play. So Tyler decided to give it a try.
He bought ten Going Pro tickets at Slix Mini Mart in Lima. One of his tickets hit the progressive jackpot of $92,010! Some might call that beginners luck.
John from Deshler is no newbie to winning. Actually, he's becoming fast friends with the staff at our Toledo office because lately, he's on a winning streak!
He won $150,000 on the Ohio Lottery Scratch-Off, Lots of 500! He bought his winning ticket at Danny Food mart in Deshler.
It's his second visit to claim a prize in the last week. He also recently won $1,000 on $300 Million Diamond Dazzler and $667 on a Pick 3 ticket. John says he plans to save his winnings.
Congrats, winners!
Don't forget you can share your winning story with us. If you visit a regional office, ask to get your photo with the big check.
Or, if you're on social media, cash your winning ticket first, then share a picture of yourself and your winning ticket using the hastag #IWontheOHLottery. You might be our next featured winner!
