Antonio P – Beaverton — 07/27/24

Playing the Long Game

You might say that Antonio from Woodburn is a bit new to this whole lottery thing. But inspiration struck as he was picking up snacks at the 7-Eleven in Beaverton. Seeing the case of colorful Scratch-its at the checkout counter, he decided to pick up a $2 Big League Bingo Scratch-it. And he hit it out of the park with this ticket, scratching to reveal a top prize of $1,000!

Antonio was so delighted when he came to the Lottery to claim his prize that he decided on impulse to pick a Scratch-it from us to play while he cashed in his prize claim. Unfortunately, not every pitch is a home run, and this ticket didn’t win. As Antonio went to toss his Scratch-it in the trash, we stopped him. As a newer player, we couldn’t let him walk away without knowing that he could enter that ticket in the Second Chance drawing. With beginner’s luck like Antonio’s, you just never know!
