On Saturday, March 11, Jose Hernandez stopped in at Ricker's Beer and Wine to pick up a $50,000 Cash scratch-off ticket that he didn't think much of, according to Maryland Lottery officials.
The Hyattsville man was in for a huge surprise when he scanned his ticket, showing he had won the top $50,000 prize.
“I scanned it and could not believe what I saw,” said Jose. “I was so happy.”
The welder immediately went home to tell his family and headed on over to the Lottery headquarters in Baltimore to claim his five-figure prize. The family man said he hopes to use the funds to take a vacation to his native El Salvador.
