Mom’s birthday numbers deliver $150K jackpot sweep for Toledo woman
Toledo, OH — A set of numbers tied to a family birthday turned into a triple payday after a Toledo woman hit the same Pick 5 combination on three separate tickets in a single drawing.
The winning numbers for the April 20 midday drawing were 2-1-7-4-7. The player purchased three $1 straight tickets at Tamz Mart on Eleanor Avenue, with each ticket matching all five numbers.
Each ticket paid $50,000, bringing the total winnings to $150,000. After required state and federal taxes, the payout comes to $109,875.
The winner said the numbers were based on her mother’s birthday — February 17, 1947 — and described the outcome as meaningful.
Pick 5 drawings are held daily, with odds of 1 in 100,000 to match all five numbers.
The winner said she plans to pay off bills and save a portion of the money while considering how to use the rest.
