A Louisville man who wishes to remain anonymous is the Kentucky Lottery’s newest millionaire. He purchased a $20 200X Scratch-off last week at Cox’s Smokers Outlet on Westport Road, winning the game’s $1,000,000 top prize.
‘It’s incredible, the best month of my life,” he said.
He was at home in the kitchen when he scratched off the winning ticket. “I was waiting for my wife to call to talk about what to fix for dinner so while standing at the counter, I scratched the ticket off,” he told lottery officials.
On the second row of his ticket, he matched the number 43 and began to scratch off the prize amount below. “I saw the zeroes and literally walked away. Am I losing my mind? I was freaking out,” he said.
“I had to sit down, I started to have a panic attack,” he said.
After checking it over and over, he finally came to the realization he had won a million dollars. He called his wife and told her they needed to chat. She immediately thought something was wrong, so he proceeded to tell her he had won $1,000,000. “She didn’t believe me and asked me to text a pic. We didn’t have a good connection, so I sat it on the kitchen counter and waited for her to get home. She looked at the ticket and with her eyes wide open, looks at me. She freaked out. We were like, what do we do now,” he said.
Two days later, he claimed the ticket at lottery headquarters. He opted to take the game’s lump sum cash payment of $914,000, receiving a check for $648,940 after taxes.
The couple began making a plan and agreed they were going to be spend the money wisely.
The Jefferson County man told officials that winning the money is the boost they needed to increase their quality of life. While they plan to invest, the couple have allotted money out of the winnings, calling it “make me happy money”.
