Ridgefield resident Calvin Waterbury won $100,000 playing "CASH5" on a ticket sold at Stop & Shop on Danbury Road in Ridgefield on Monday, Nov. 15.

A second winning $100,000 "CASH5" ticket sold at the Citgo station on River Road in Shelton was also cashed in earlier that same day.

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 two weren’t the only ones feeling lucky in Connecticut. Other recent winners of prizes topping $10,000, according to CT Lotto include:
