Greensboro resident Cameron Vick, a UPS driver for 37 years, told a man on his route that he would win the Cash 5 jackpot and his prediction came true later that night with a $160,756 win.

“I told him, ‘I’m going to win this one,’” he recalled.

Vick said he decided at the last minute to buy a $1 Cash 5 ticket using Online Play in the Aug. 20 drawing.

“It was just a spur-of-the-moment thing,” he said. “I really just decided to play out of the blue.”

Vick said that after he won he told one of his friends the big news.

“He hugged me and started crying,” Vick said.

He claimed his prize at lottery headquarters Monday and, after required federal and state tax withholdings, took home $114,941.

Vick said he plans to do some home repairs with his winnings.

Cash 5 is one of six lottery games in North Carolina where players have the option of buying their tickets at a retail location or with Online Play through the lottery’s website or with the NC Lottery Official Mobile App.

Tuesday’s jackpot is $236,000. The odds of winning a Cash 5 jackpot are 1 in 962,598.
