On Sunday evening, Latonya Pitts of Enfield stopped to try her luck on a $20 ticket and walked away with a $100,000 prize.

“I couldn’t believe it,” she said.

Pitts purchased her winning $150 Million Cash Explosion ticket from the Grab N Go Mart on N.C. 48 in Battleboro.

She claimed her prize Tuesday at lottery headquarters in Raleigh and took home $70,756 after required federal and state tax withholdings.

The $150 Million Cash Explosion game launched in October 2018 with four top prizes of $4 million, six $1 million prizes and 10 $100,000 prizes. One $4 million top prize remains to be won.

Will you end this ticket now or wait for the last top prize to be won?NC Lottery
Hi Vaneet, thanks for asking. We do our best to wait until all the top prizes are won before ending a game, but other factors can effect the decision of when to end a game, such as the popularity of the game with players, and whether or not a similar new game is released.
