The lucky streak for Massachusetts lottery players continues as another major win has been chalked up, this time with a $4 million prize from a scratch ticket sold in Woburn. The fortunate winner didn't go public, rather the Pyrrhic Funding Trust of Chelmsford stepped forward to claim the bounty, as reported by Boston 25 News.
Represented by an individual named Susan Atlas, the trust has opted for a lump sum, taking home $2,600,000, an amount that, before their life is completely changed by this win, one must wonder if the winner can truly comprehend its impact. The "Bonus Bucks" scratch ticket causing all this fuss was purchased at a Gulf gas station on Montvale Avenue, the same location which will now enjoy a $40,000 bonus for selling the winning ticket.
Yet, it isn't just about that one scratch ticket win in the Bay State. As detailed by MassLive, there's still another $4 million top prize lurking out there in the "$4,000,000 Bonus Bucks" scratch ticket game, with a sole victor remaining at large as of today. Meanwhile, another lottery enthusiast landed a cool $100,000 in the "Mass Cash" drawing, with the winning ticket sold in Shrewsbury.
Across the state, the lottery seems to be sprinkling its magic liberally. In just a single day, at least 538 prizes worth $600 or more were claimed, including 17 in Springfield and 65 in Boston, with their respective winners all probably thinking about how to spend their hefty gains. This news follows the colossal win earlier this year, when a life-altering "Lifetime Millions" scratch ticket game prize was won, and the winner, through a trust, received a one-time payment of $15.4 million.
