COLUMBIA, SC (September 26, 2025) – A Midlands woman thought she was having a heart attack when she won a $170,000 lottery jackpot.
“My heart stopped,” she said. “And then is started again.”
The longtime player says it was shocking to finally see all five numbers on her Palmetto Cash 5 ticket match those drawn on September 12.
But she says it was also pretty amazing too. She wants to bless her church and her family with the win.
For selling the claimed ticket, Southeast BP on Garners Ferry Rd. in Columbia received a commission of $1,700.
The odds of winning a Palmetto Cash 5 jackpot are 1 in 850,668.
