Burke County man celebrates $1 million win

May 26, 2023 Posted by NC Lottery at 8:59 AM

Tyler Gragg of Connelly Springs took a chance on a $30 scratch-off and won a $1 million prize.

He bought his lucky Millionaire Maker ticket from Murphy Express on N.C. 73 in Denver.

When Gragg arrived at lottery headquarters Thursday, he had a decision to make. He could choose to receive the prize as an annuity of $50,000 over 20 years or a lump sum of $600,000. He chose the lump-sum amount of $600,000 and, after required state and federal tax withholdings, took home $427,509.
