ABERDEEN, MD — A longtime lottery fan from Howard County has claimed a $50,000 top prize after purchasing a Bonus Bingo X20 scratch-off ticket at a Royal Farms in Aberdeen.
The winner, choosing to remain anonymous under the name “Jean,” has played Maryland Lottery games for over 20 years, frequently trying her luck with Powerball, Multi-Match, and Mega Millions. This latest win marks her largest prize to date.
Jean bought the lucky $20 ticket at Royal Farms, 742 South Philadelphia Blvd., using $40 in winnings from a previous game. Initially unsure of her prize amount, she was shocked to learn she had won $50,000.
She plans to use the money for home renovations and will continue playing the lottery for fun, hoping for another big win in the future.
