LANSING, MI (WHTC-AM/FM, Aug. 14, 2024) – A 25-year-old Holland area woman is gradually recovering from the admitted shock of uncovering a grand prize in a Michigan Lottery scratch off game.
The unnamed winner claimed $300,000 after showing the Emerald Green Wild Time ticket to lottery officials in Lansing earlier this week. She told them that it was a gift from her uncle, who was with her when she uncovered the winning number 15. The $5 ticket was purchased at the Lincolnshire Party Store and Deli off of Lincoln Avenue, which will receive a cash prize itself for selling the ducat.
“When I revealed a $300,0000 prize, my first thought was: ‘Is this fake?’ I was immediately overwhelmed because I’ve never had this amount of money before! I am still in shock and trying to take it all in.” – Emerald Green Wild Time ticket winner
The winner looks to invest her windfall.
