A Frederick County man received a “WIN ALL” symbol on his scratch-off which resulted in a $200,000 prize.
His journey began at the Weis Market, located at 2 Thurmont Boulevard in Thurmont, when he purchased a $5,000,000 LUXE scratch-off on his way home from work. He scanned his ticket and it said “Go to Lottery”.
The Western Maryland dad went home and decided to scratch the whole ticket to find the prize underneath.
“I thought I won a couple thousand bucks,” he said. The loyal player was wrong. He was actually winning a few thousand bucks with almost every scratch.
According to the big winner, his ticket revealed multiple $5,000 and $10,000 prizes but his numbers didn’t match any of the winning numbers. He thought he had a non-winning ticket but then he saw the “WIN ALL” symbol. That meant he won every prize on the ticket and it all added up to $200,000.
“It was a great feeling,” he said after his win.
He plans to pay off bills, including student loans, and use the rest towards an anniversary gift for his wife. The convenience store employee likes to spend time with his kids.
The $5,000,000 LUXE scratch-off is a $50 ticket that kicked off in February with three $5 million top prizes. Maurice Williams of Washington D.C. claimed the first top prize, leaving two remaining. This is the second player to claim a $200,000 prize, with eight of those still unclaimed.
