$200,000 Monopoly Frenzy! win leaves Moore County man shaking

January 2, 2019 Posted by NC Lottery at 9:58 AM

James Lyle of Pinehurst said he plans to use his $200,000 lottery win to make his wife’s dream of owning a Jeep come true.

“It still feels like we’re newlyweds,” Lyle said. “I’m going to buy her the car of her dreams.” 

Lyle’s good fortune started when he stopped at the Parade on Macon Street on East Macon Street in Warrenton. While he was there, he bought the new Monopoly Frenzy! scratch-off ticket.

“I nearly had a heart attack when I saw the numbers,” Lyle said. “I couldn’t believe it. I started shaking I was so excited.”

Lyle claimed his prize Monday at lottery headquarters in Raleigh. After required state and federal tax withholdings, he took home $141,003. 
 
Every First Tuesday of the month the lottery launches new scratch-off games. Lyle is the first player to win a top prize since the $5 game launched earlier this week. Three $200,000 prizes remain.

Im happy for this man and his family! On the other hand, why the picture shows the date 12/31/18 if the game was launched on January 1st 2019? NC Lottery
Hi Gabriela, we want every player to have the opportunity to play new games on First Tuesday, so we ship the new scratch-offs out a few days early to give us enough time to ensure that they can reach all our retailers across the state. This means a retailer could receive the new tickets a few days early.
