On Thursday, Oct. 4, Bridgeport resident Aodrone Johnson was feeling lucky after cashing in a winning $100,000 “KENO” ticket that was sold at the Boston News & Deli on Boston Avenue in Bridgeport.
Days later, on Monday, Nov. 8, Fairfield resident James McDonald won the same prize on a “CASH5” ticket that was sold at the Cumberland Farms location on Post Road in Fairfield.
The winning $100,000 tickets were sandwiched between a Hartford County man who won nearly $1 million playing “Millionaire.”
According to CT Lottery, “when a winning scratch ticket is validated through a Lottery Retailer's terminal, the remaining number of unclaimed prizes for that prize level is automatically updated reflecting one less prize. Until the individual or group presents their winning ticket for claim at CT Lottery Headquarters, the identity of a winner is unknown.”
Those three weren't the only ones to get lucky. Other recent winners of prizes topping $10,000, according to CT Lotto include:
