Charles Clemons, of Chicopee, won the seven-figure sum playing the "Celtics Banner 18" game, a $10 scratch-off ticket.
He chose to take the lump sum payment of $650,000 (before taxes) rather than the annuity. His wife Sara joined him to collect the check.
Clemons already has a plan for the money. He said he would buy a motorcycle, invest and save some of the cash, and remodel his home's roof.
He bought the ticket at Racing Mart, 475 Saint James Ave. in Springfield. The store will get a $10,000 bonus for the sale.
Two $1 million winning tickets remain in circulation for the "Celtics Banner 18" game.
