A lucky guy from Avon wins a big jackpot recently in a lotto lottery game
A local gas station sold a pretty lucrative scratch-off Connecticut Lottery Corp. ticket on Friday, Oct. 27. And, even though it fell far short of the $1 million maximum payout, the winner — who hails from the Riverton section of Barkhamsted — isn't complaining.
According to state lottery officials, the person won $25,000 playing the "Hot Millions" scratch-off game on Friday.
The winning ticket, which costs $10 to play, was purchased at the Horizon Petroleum gas station at 411 W. Main St., Avon.
The winning ticket has sparked a wave of excitement and speculation within the community, as neighbors and friends eagerly try to uncover the identity of the fortunate winner.
The unexpected windfall promises to be life-changing for the lucky resident, who can now look forward to a brighter and more prosperous future.
Lottery officials encourage the winner to come forward, validate their ticket, and begin the process of claiming their substantial prize.
