HARFORD COUNTY, MD – A rushed stop at a gas station turned into a life-changing moment for a Harford County woman, who won $50,000 on a MONOPOLY X20 scratch-off ticket.
The winner purchased five scratch-offs at Clinton Crossings Exxon in Prince George’s County while out with her brother. She shared two of the tickets with him, and while he won $25, her ticket revealed the game’s top prize.
After scanning her ticket using the Maryland Lottery app, she called her brother in disbelief, telling him, “I got the big one.”
The lucky winner, a government employee, is considering her financial options. The retailer that sold the ticket will receive a $500 bonus.
