Rock Hill lottery winner is the latest to hit big in York County. Here’s what she won
A Rock Hill woman is the latest six-figure lottery winner in the area.
The South Carolina Education Lottery announced the win Thursday. A Rock Hill woman bought a $5 ticket in the Pink Sapphire Payout game from West Main Discount on West Main Street. The scratch-off win was good for $200,000.
One more top prize remains in the game. The odds of that win are 1 in 750,000.
The woman told lottery officials, per a release, that she found out about the win while at the dinner table. She would save the winnings, she said, for a rainy day.
West Main Discount earned a $2,000 commission for selling the winning ticket.
Lottery luck has been common in the area. Earlier this month a Fort Mill man won $1 million in the North Carolina lottery. A half dozen winners have hit six figures this year from Rock Hill, Fort Mill and other parts of York, Lancaster and Chester counties.
