COLUMBIA, SC (October 30, 2025) – A Rock Hill man is sticking with the lotto numbers that won him a $140,000 jackpot earlier this month.
“Yeah, I’m still playing them,” he told lottery officials this week. “They made my life better.”
He says he instantly recognized the Palmetto Cash 5 numbers he had been playing for three years, when they were finally drawn on October 7. The next day, he traveled with this wife to Columbia to cash in the winning ticket that he bought at the Food Lion on Heckle Blvd.
For selling the claimed ticket, Food Lion #1580 in Rock Hill received a commission of $1,400.
The odds of winning a Palmetto Cash 5 jackpot are 1 in 850,668.
