Montgomery County man wins big with $100,000 lottery prize

Silver Spring, MD – A Montgomery County resident scratched his way to a $100,000 top prize on the MONOPOLY X50 game. The winning ticket was purchased at El Toro Wine and Liquors on November 19.

The player, who is fond of Maryland Lottery scratch-off games, was running errands when he decided to stop for a few tickets. He expressed a preference for the higher-priced games, which offer larger prizes.

Upon scanning the MONOPOLY X50 ticket, he revealed the substantial win and asked the cashier to confirm the result.

Excited by the news, he called his wife to share the good fortune, which brought her great joy.

The HVAC technician promptly made an appointment to claim his winnings. He plans to allocate some funds for the upcoming holidays and save the remainder.

El Toro Wine and Liquors will also receive a $1,000 bonus, amounting to 1% of the prize.

The MONOPOLY X50 scratch-off game, launched in January, still has substantial prizes available. As it stands, only two $100,000 prizes remain unclaimed, along with three $50,000 prizes and numerous other amounts ranging from $10 to $10,000.

The MONOPOLY X50 scratch-off game is licensed by Scientific Games, LLC.
