New Carrollton, MD – A Prince George’s County mechanic turned a childhood memory into a $50,000 windfall in the Maryland Lottery’s Pick 5 evening drawing. A resident of New Carrollton, the winner frequently engages in lottery play and casino visits, dreaming of a significant win, which materialized last week with a remarkable Pick 5 prize.
Over the years, he’s enjoyed several wins, the most substantial being $1,500 at a casino until now. His recent purchase of a $2 Pick 5 ticket at the A-1 Laundromat in Riverdale, using the ZIP code 20783 from his childhood home as his numbers, has notably elevated his winning streak. He placed a $1 straight bet for the midday and evening drawings on February 5.
The revelation of his winning numbers on the evening of February 5 prompted an immediate verification to ensure he had participated in that day’s draw. His routine of playing this particular number combination paid off handsomely, leading to plans to pay bills and generously share with his family. Additionally, he vows to continue visiting his lucky laundromat at 6818 Riverdale Road.
