A stroke of luck struck LaFollette this week when a Tennessee Cash player bagged a $280,000 jackpot. The winning ducat was sold at the Breadbox convenience store, located smack on E. Central Avenue—reports WVLT. While LaFollette basks in the sudden wealth of one of its own, the identity of the new jackpot overlord is still under wraps.
In a quite literal game of chance, Breadbox – a store that sounds more like a place you’d stash your sourdough than a lottery gold mine— has seemingly dealt a solid hand to an yet-to-be-known local player. According to the Tennessee Lottery, once the lucky winner comes forward to claim their loot, further details will magically appear, as if money talks and secrets walk, detailed WATE.
It’s not just the Breadbox winner that’s currently swimming in the Lottery largesse; another Tennessee local from Brentwood matched four numbers and the Powerball in the Wednesday drawing, nabbing a cool $50,000. These winnings punctuate the Tennessee Lottery's broader impact, which boasts contributions exceeding $8 billion towards education-oriented causes since its 2004 inception, according to information gleaned from WATE.
The winning numbers that changed the financial fate of the ticket holder on Wednesday were 5-20-15-2-8, with a Powerball of 3, per WBIR.
