Money - Lottery winning jackpot.

GLEN BURNIE, MD – In a stroke of luck, a resident of Glen Burnie experienced a strong intuition to play the Lottery. Despite not having played scratch-offs for the past six months, he followed his instincts and visited a local Lottery retailer. Out of the two scratch-offs he purchased, one turned out to be a $50,000 top prize winner.

On the same morning, the 25-year-old had a need to refuel his car with gas. Taking care of both tasks, he headed to the Mobil gas station in Glen Burnie. At the station’s Lottery vending machine, he purchased the scratch-offs, including the fortuitous $20 $50,000 Cash game.

Without delay, as soon as he finished refueling, he eagerly scratched off his instant tickets. To his delight, he won a small prize on a $30 scratch-off and the coveted $50,000 top prize on the $50,000 Cash game.


Expressing his surprise, the fortunate winner remarked, “I never expected this.” Previously, his largest prize had been $500. As a delivery driver residing in Anne Arundel County, he intends to utilize his windfall to purchase a new car.

The Lottery retailer, Glen Burnie Mobil located at 7200 Ritchie Highway, shares in the winner’s good fortune. As a result of selling the top-prize winning scratch-off worth $50,000, the retailer will receive a $500 bonus from the Lottery.
