Essex Man Takes a Seat after $50,000 Scratch-off Win Was it the fact he bought the Cash Money scratch-off after work instead of before work that made a difference or was it just pure luck?

The loyal Essex player doesn’t know but he’s sure happy he stopped at his favorite Lottery retailer that day. He won a $50,000 top prize.

The environmental services employee for a federal agency typically visits Beer Pump Wine & Spirits, located at 3 Compass Road in Middle River, on the way to work each morning to buy scratch-offs and coffee.

“I buy four at a time every day,” he said, looking over at his wife in the Winner’s Circle. “She doesn’t know that, but I do.” The couple laughed together as he described his scratch-off routine.
