COLUMBIA, SC (August 26, 2021) – After dinner a Rock Hill woman’s dessert was a lottery ticket, and she won a sweet $200,000.

“I nearly passed out at the dinner table,” the winner told South Carolina Education Lottery officials.

As she scratched off her prize, she described seeing $20, then another zero for $200 and finally uncovering three more zeroes for the $200,000 win.

“It was unexpected,” she said of the prize won of a $5 ticket purchased at the West Main Discount on W. Main St. in Rock Hill. “I’m saving for a rainy day.”

West Main Discount in Rock Hill received a $2,000 commission for selling the claimed ticket.

One top prize of $200,000 remains in the $5 Pink Sapphire Payout game at odds of 1 in 750,000.
