Baltimore Man Wins Final $50,000 Prize on Scratch-off Game

August 15, 2024

BALTIMORE, MD—A Baltimore resident struck gold today, winning the last $50,000 top prize from THE BIG SPIN scratch-off, a popular $5 game offered by the Maryland Lottery. The lucky winner, a father and husband, experienced his fortunate turn at Selma’s Liquors in Baltimore after his routine purchase of lottery tickets post-work.

His winning moment came unexpectedly when he opted to buy two THE BIG SPIN tickets, inspired by another customer buying four. Choosing to scratch only the prize check area of the tickets, he discovered his big win on the second ticket, which congratulated him as a $50,000 winner.

Overjoyed by the surprise, he verified the win with the store’s cashier, who confirmed his good fortune. The elated winner wasted no time sharing the exciting news with his wife, playfully telling her over the phone, “You’re rich.” The couple later visited the Maryland Lottery headquarters together to claim their prize.
