Lisa Eichinger was in her car stopped at a light when she took out a Cash 5 with EZ Match ticket to check on her winning numbers, only for the light to turn green as she checked one number.
It matched.
The Haymarket woman continued on, and sure enough, discovered that she matched a second number while stopped at a second light.
This went on for some time until the lucky Lottery player realized that she had matched all five numbers - 06-20-32-36-43 - to win a $1,505,299 million jackpot for the Sept. 30 drawing.
The winning ticket was sold at Evergreen Liberty at 3511 James Madison Highway in Haymarket, which will collect a $10,000 bonus of its own.
Cash 5 with EZ Match features a rolling jackpot starting at a minimum of $200,000. The odds of matching all five numbers to win the jackpot are 1 in 1,221,759.
Eichinger, who is a teacher, said she has no immediate plans for her winnings
