MARION, S.C. (WMBF) - A quick stop for an energy drink turned into a big win for one Pee Dee man.
The South Carolina Education Lottery said the lucky winner bought a ticket at the Cruizers store on Highway 76 in Marion.
That ticket he bought in the Cash Payout game ended up winning the top prize of $300,000. Lottery officials said the win odds were 1 in 984,000, with three more top prizes remaining.
The winner told lottery officials he plans to take care of a few things for himself and help others with the prize.
“It’s a miracle,” he said.
The Cruizers store also earned a $3,000 commission for selling the winning ticket.
