COLUMBIA, SC (February 29, 2024) – A Rock Hill man says winning the Lottery was crazy.

He happened to stop by the York Mart on S. Anderson Rd. in Rock Hill and pick out a lottery ticket. In a hurry, he only scratched off the barcode at the bottom of the ticket and put it under the ticket checker. When the message read to “Claim at Lottery,” he decided to scratch the whole card.

“It was breathtaking,” he said when he saw his ticket was worth $300,000.

And while winning might have seemed crazy, his plans aren’t. “I’m investing it,” he said.

The win leaves two top prizes of $300,000 in Carolina Cash game at odds of 1 in 840,000.

York Mart in Rock Hill received a commission of $3,000 for selling the claimed ticket.
