COLUMBIA, SC (November 6, 2018) – A Union man has been walking around with a big smile on his face and a secret.
He hasn’t told a sole the smile stems from winning a $200,000 lottery prize.
“I play the lottery every day,” he told lottery officials when he cashed in his winning Palmetto Cash 5 ticket.
And he checks his ticket every evening to see if he’s won. His lucky numbers came in the evening of Tuesday, October 9 (9, 27, 28, 35 and 38).
“I sat staring at my ticket,” he said. “I still don’t believe this.”
Because he Powered-Up his ticket for an extra $1, his $100,000 prize multiplied to $200,000 when a 2x multiplier was drawn.
The odds of winning $200,000 playing Palmetto Cash 5 are 1 in 1,003,884.
For selling the claimed ticket, KC Mart in Union received a commission of $2,000.
