Scratching their way to fortune, one lucky person in Westmoreland County has become a millionaire overnight. A $3 million winning scratch-off lottery ticket was vented at a Sunoco gas station in Irwin, revolutionizing an individual's life with a simple stroke of luck. The gas station located at 623 Oak Street is now not just known for fuel but also for dreams turning into reality, and as a result, it will receive a neat $10,000 bonus for selling the ticket, WPXI reported.

Pennsylvania Lottery officials revealed that the $3,000,000 Fun Fortune scratch-off game, which costs a hopeful player $30, can offer top prizes of $3 million, according to WTAE. Meanwhile, scratching off the silver coating, the winning ticket holder has yet to claim their prize. The lottery said, "Scratch-offs are distributed at random, meaning the Pennsylvania Lottery and its retailers do not know where winning tickets will be sold."

Winners should sign the back of their ticket. If you haven't claimed your prize yet, call the lottery at 800-692-7481. Also, remember that scratch-off prizes expire one year from the game's end-sale date, as noted on the lottery's website.
